18.01.2022 CDS invites you to participate in an international survey on the impact of COVID-19 on individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, their families and service providers. The survey is led by the Centre for Disability Studies, University College Dublin, Ireland, and comprises a team of 26 researchers from 19 countries. In collaboration with Professor Christine Bigby, Director of the Living with Disability Research Centre La Trobe University, Associate Profes...sor Mary-Ann O'Donovan with the Centre for Disability Studies, Sydney University are distributing this survey across Australia. The survey has ethics approval, is anonymous and takes about 25 minutes to complete.
