80 organisations went to Canberra to speak to politicians about climate change.

Renew Australia For All organised meetings with 46 politicians on Wednesday 16 March 2026.

Self Advocacy Sydney was part of the group.

We spoke to politicians about how climate change affects people with intellectual disability living in Western Sydney.

We shared the experiences about climate change from our peer support sessions.

We also spoke about changes to advocacy.

This could make it harder for people to speak up.

We were listened to and supported.

Speaking up is very important

It helps make change.

Thank you to Renew Australia for All.

Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.

The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination was created by the United Nations to raise awareness and encourage global action against racism.

This week people have been celebrating Harmony Day, but we feel it is important to extend the conversation to talk about the racial discrimination and inequality still experienced by many people today.

We still have a long way to go in the fight against racism and discrimination.
Self Advocacy Sydney stands up for equality, justice and dignity for everyone.
