UOW's Disability Inclusion Network (DIN) is a voluntary staff network that aims to provide a platform for meaningful conversations about what access and inclusion looks like at UOW, to share information, resources and events, and to act as an informal and community-based support for people with disability and their allies.

The network provides a safe space for UOW staff to ask questions, share experiences, resources, research, and allyship and provides an opportunity to connect, collaborate, and be part of a community of support, ideas and practice.
