Presenting

Having a Say 2011

‘You Are The Voice'

Do others hear your voice? Do others respect your views and opinions?

For too long the voice of many people with a disability has been silenced by the views and opinions of others. Other people speak for, choose for and make decisions for people who often find it hard to speak up for themselves.  The 12th VALID Having a Say Conference says You Are The Voice! Let’s make the world try and understand it.
We are happy to be able to again invite people with disabilities and disability groups to put in Expressions of Interest to present, perform or conduct a display for the 2011 Having a Say conference.

Below is a link to download an Expression of Interest form to assist with giving us information about your presentation, performance or display. If you need more room or to tell us anything else about your presentation, please use another sheet of paper.

Expressions of Interest close on the 6th of August 2010.

Important note: Presenters and performers still need to put in a registration for the conference.

Last year we received a large amount of Expressions of Interests and so we would also like to point out the priorities for successfully obtaining a place in the program.

Priority will be given to presentations/performances that:
•    involve people with disabilities in the planning
•    are presented / performed by people with disability
•    focus on the conference theme
•    are part of other initiatives to develop skills & leadership

If you need any more information or have questions please contact us either via email havingasay@valid.org.au or on 03 9416 4003 or freecall 1800 655 570. We look forward to receiving your Expressions of Interest.
