Facilities and Access
Aboriginal People

Every Australian has a right to access safe and accessible facilities to play sport. Governments at all levels, sport organisations and other businesses are investing in new and updated facilities that make sport more accessible to people with a disability, women and girls, older adults and people from linguistically and culturally diverse backgrounds. More accessible facilities allow for more participation, so this will benefit Aboriginal people. Yet, across the country, more investment is needed to ensure everyone has access to a safe and accessible place to play.
