Disability Inclusive Pathways Conference 2026

Join us at the 2026 Disability Inclusive Pathways Conference, proudly hosted by the New Zealand Disability Employers' Network on 4th and 5th August at the Pullman Hotel and Apartments, Auckland.

The Disability Inclusive Pathways Conference is New Zealand’s premier business event for leaders building workplaces that perform by working for everyone in them.

DIPC 2026 puts the productivity case for disability inclusion front and centre. The programme examines what organisations stand to gain when they address the gap, and sets that conversation in the context of what employers are actually navigating right now, including the ongoing effects of global uncertainty and the growing influence of artificial intelligence on how work gets done and who it works for.

You’ll hear from business leaders, HR and diversity professionals, and sector influencers from across the public, private, and for-purpose sectors, including a strong line-up of international speakers. Sessions are practical and evidence-based, built around the question: what is the missing advantage in your organisation, and how do you find it?

Secure your spot today to take your next step!

In addition to the two day main conference, in partnership with Whaikaha | Ministry of Disabled People, we are proud to host the second Advancing Disability Inclusion in the Public Sector - Working Session - a complimentary third day event for public service attendees.
