    Become a QDeNgage Consultant

    We have a team of people with disability from across Queensland with a broad range of skills and experience. This may include specialist skills such as public speaking, expertise in a particular industry (e.g. housing or transport), or providing feedback, advice and being on Advisory groups, co-design workshops, user-testing groups and consultations and engagements.

    People with disability have specialist knowledge, expertise and unique perspectives and can help businesses, industry, organisations and government make their products, services, environments and policy more inclusive and accessible. There are lots of different opportunities to engage and share your knowledge and expertise.
