| pubs.rights-statement | Increasing the number of Australians participating in sport and active recreation through an integrated, whole-of-sport approach is an essential element of the governments new direction for sport, Australian Sport: The Pathway to Success. In building better communities, it is critical that we increase community participation and social inclusion by minimising the disadvantages and constraints that have an impact on the participation of many marginalised groups, such as people with disability, women and girls, Indigenous people, and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. This report examines the factors that influence the participation and non-participation of people with disability, the constraints that people with disability encounter which limit or deter their participation, and investigates the benefits people with disability derive from their participation in sport and active recreation. The social and structural disconnection faced by people with disability, often on a daily basis, is clearly evident in the significantly lower participation rates of people with disability in sport and active recreation than that of the general population. The most recent comparative figures from the General Social Survey1 indicate that, on average, people with disability are 15% less likely to participate in sport and active recreation than the general population. The literature strongly suggests that type of disability and level of support needs are important considerations in the participation and non-participation patterns of people with disability. The findings in this report reinforce these considerations, and suggest that any person who has high support needs faces significant constraints to their participation. | en_US |

| pubs.rights-statement | Increasing the number of Australians participating in sport and active recreation through an integrated, whole-of-sport approach is an essential element of the governments new direction for sport, Australian Sport: The Pathway to Success. In building better communities, it is critical that we increase community participation and social inclusion by minimising the disadvantages and constraints that have an impact on the participation of many marginalised groups, such as people with disability, women and girls, Indigenous people, and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. This report examines the factors that influence the participation and non-participation of people with disability, the constraints that people with disability encounter which limit or deter their participation, and investigates the benefits people with disability derive from their participation in sport and active recreation. The social and structural disconnection faced by people with disability, often on a daily basis, is clearly evident in the significantly lower participation rates of people with disability in sport and active recreation than that of the general population. The most recent comparative figures from the General Social Survey1 indicate that, on average, people with disability are 15% less likely to participate in sport and active recreation than the general population. The literature strongly suggests that type of disability and level of support needs are important considerations in the participation and non-participation patterns of people with disability. The findings in this report reinforce these considerations, and suggest that any person who has high support needs faces significant constraints to their participation. | en_US |
