Unlocking new customers for your business


The accessible tourism sector is of high value to the Australian tourism industry and broader economy. In Australia 1 in 4 travellers identify as having a disability.

There is  no doubt that being accessible and inclusive is worth it! It’s a win for your customers and your business.


Join TiCSA for an practical and hands-on Accessible and Inclusive Tourism workshop facilitated by tourism and business expert, Giovanna Lever of Sparrowly Group. Giovanna is the co-author of nationally acclaimed accessible tourism paper, Creating Real Inclusion and advocate for people with disability.

  • Learn more about this sector, what it means for your business
  • Build your confidence in working with and supporting people with disability
