Kia Ōrite: Achieving Equity

The New Zealand Code of Practice for an Inclusive Tertiary Education Environment for Students with Impairments

The Code of Practice is designed to assist tertiary education providers to achieve a fully inclusive environment through the ongoing identification and removal of barriers in all areas of campus life.  It is a tool to assist all staff within an institution in meeting their responsibilities, and is not just for those working in Disability Support Services.

New Zealand Disability Strategy

The strategy, released in 2001, is the first government document that explicitly identifies barriers to participation and achievement for people with impairments.  It contains objectives and actions that are relevant to all tertiary education providers.
