Improving your knowledge of diversity is fundamental to creating inclusive activities, while also helping to deepen your relationships with others in your community. While every community is different in terms of its cultural makeup, here are some general resources to assist with designing programming that is accessible to everyone.

• Inclusion Directory Network

• Online: Diversity Council Australia Knowledge Programs

• Creating Accessible and Inclusive Communications

• Arts Access Australia resources

• Art for Everyone: an inclusive practice guide

• AASW guide: Working with Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Peoples

• Protocols For Using First Nations Cultural And Intellectual Property In The Arts

The Creative Tool Box is designed for self-directed learning and development, to assist you in growing your personal and professional skills as you see fit. It is a free and democratic resource that adapts as the creative landscape changes; the sections and links you see are just examples of what is possible.

We invite everyone to build upon this current structure, to make the Creative Tool Box a state-wide go-to for all artists and arts workers seeking development and for anyone considering a career in the arts. All ideas, feedback or content suggestions are warmly welcomed through the Make It Better contributors portal.
