Our @Elgar Research Handbook on Disability Policy is out in the world!
Two years of hard work by 70 authors. The book interweaves personal narratives from disabled people with academic chapters which provide important insights into how policy affects human rights.

Dominic Perrottet was 21 when he chose to wear a Nazi uniform, to look like Nazis who have killed millions of Jews.
Meanwhile, in NSW, the age of criminal responsibility is 10 🙄
