ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In our latest episode of the Research for Social Impact podcast, we examine the recent research led by CSI Swinburne in partnership with the NSW Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ), focused on how public sector employers can expand employment opportunities and pathways for people with intellectual disability.
The discussion features CSI Swinburne Research Fellow and co-author Lucy Macali alongside DCJ Senior Advisor for Inclusion and Diversity, Maiten Pennay. Together, they reflect on the findings of the Growing Intellectual Disability Employment project, exploring persistent barriers, practical approaches that are working, and the role of government in driving change.
With employment for people with intellectual disability remaining significantly low, this conversation offers a timely and grounded perspective on what needs to shift.
We hope you enjoy this discussion, and thanks for listening!
