NAVA's Disability Action Plan

Survey for community consultation

Currently in development, NAVA’s first Disability Action Plan (DAP) aims to improve the conditions of work and practice for disabled people in the visual arts, challenge ableism, and exemplify good practice.

We are asking artists and arts workers who are d/Deaf and/or Disabled to fill in a short 5-minute survey to help us understand the barriers you face in the visual arts sector and how NAVA’s advocacy work can better support you.

This survey will close on 5 May 2024.
