The National Disability Data Asset is a new way to connect data about people with disability.

In this document we call it ‘the Data Asset’.

A tick, an information document and a group of documents in a folder.

When we talk about data, we mean:

  • facts
  • information
  • records.

The Data Asset will get data about all Australians from different parts of the government.

A diverse group of people with disability.

It will help us better understand the experiences of people with disability.
