Include the voice of children

Reference Group members talked about how the NDIA’s work can include the voice of children.

Members explained that children should have support to share their experience with the NDIS.

This includes sharing how well the NDIS is working for them.

Members also explained that it’s important to focus on children over 9 years old.

Members shared how the NDIA should use the voice of children in their co-design work.

Co-design is when people work together to hear different ideas when they plan or create something new.  

Members shared that the NDIA should:

  • find more ways for young people to be part of co-design

  • keep doing co-design work

  • keep working with its Children's Expert Advisory Group.
