Arts Access Australia’s CEO Matthew Hall and National Program Manager Sarah Houbolt spoke about a co-designed national Code of Conduct project. Pictures supplied.
‘It is absolutely critical that we engage with as many people on this journey to develop a national voluntary code of conduct for access in the arts,’ said Arts Access Australia’s CEO Matthew Hall about the current push for a National Access and Inclusion Code of Conduct for the arts.
In the short term, he aspired to achieve a broad adoption of an agreement with a set of fundamental principles in a voluntary Code of Conduct that would be designed by, and with, Australian arts and cultural organisations and deaf, disabled and neurodivergent artists and audiences.’
