A founding partner of the Arts Council of Ireland, ADI provides strategic leadership, practical support, and advocacy to ensure disabled people can participate fully in the arts as creators, performers, and audiences.

It provides advocacy, research, and training on accessibility and inclusion for the wider arts sector. ADI programmes accessible performances — including relaxed, audio described, and Irish Sign Language interpreted events — and monitors arts policy implementation for disability inclusion nationwide.
