Everyone, Everyday is a disability awareness program being developed by BLITS (Business Leaders Innovative Thoughts and Solutions), Disability ACT and the Education and Training Directorate.

The aim of the program is to positively influence attitudes and behaviours within the community by raising awareness about disability amongst the next generation of decision-makers - ACT school students.

A Curriculum Resource is being developed for ACT school teachers. The Everyone Everyday Curriculum Resource will include a set of classroom ideas that are evidence based and align with the new Australian Curriculum and the ACT Schools Curriculum Framework - Every Chance to Learn. The University of Canberra and the Australian Catholic University are critical friends supporting the program.

A discussion paper has been created to guide consultations on the curriculum resource. The paper can be found at www.blits.org.au

This forum will be facilitated by Dr Chris Kilham, a Senior Lecturer in the Faculty of Education at the University of Canberra. We welcome your participation
