Cushman & Wakefield Australia proudly announces the launch of its inaugural Disability Action Plan (DAP), a groundbreaking step in the company's ongoing commitment to fostering inclusivity, accessibility, and equity. This launch aligns with the International Day of People with Disability (IDPwD), a vital occasion dedicated to promoting the dignity, rights, and well-being of people with disabilities.
The launch of the DAP marks a significant milestone in Cushman & Wakefield’s efforts to create inclusive workplaces and communities. More than a policy, the DAP represents a promise—a promise to challenge barriers, promote belonging, and ensure all individuals have the opportunity to thrive. With a strong foundation in the company’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) strategies, the DAP will guide meaningful change across the organisation’s culture, practices, and business operations.
As a global leader in commercial real estate services, we believe in shaping workplaces and communities where diversity is embraced, and inclusion is the norm. The launch of our Disability Action Plan demonstrates our commitment to driving positive change, not only within our organisation but also in the broader community," noted Anna Town.
Championing Disability Inclusion Through Collaboration
The development of the DAP reflects tireless collaboration with industry experts, advocacy groups, and Cushman & Wakefield’s talented teams. A key enabler behind these efforts is the company’s Leading with Education and Awareness of Disabilities (LEAD) Employee Resource Group (ERG). LEAD plays a pivotal role in fostering a culture that prioritises disability inclusion by dismantling barriers and driving awareness. Through initiatives led by LEAD, Cushman & Wakefield continues to cultivate a workplace that embraces diversity and amplifies belonging.

Building an Inclusive Future Together
The International Day of People with Disability is a moment to reflect on individual and collective roles in addressing discrimination and inaccessibility. At Cushman & Wakefield, this day reaffirms the organisation’s determination to never settle for anything less than inclusion.
Cushman & Wakefield Australia invites colleagues, clients, and communities to join this purpose-driven movement by exploring the Disability Action Plan.
