Improving Accessible Communication in Parks and Playgrounds

South Australia’s communities are diverse in ability and language. But how can we ensure our outdoor areas, the places where we all come together, are welcoming for everyone?

This event will discuss the strategies and tactics local councils can implement to improve communication in parks and playgrounds.

This event is led by the Local Government Access & Inclusion Network together with the Active Living Coalition.
