Ebe Ganon wins the Sue Salthouse Award for Championing Humans Rights and Equality

Ebe Ganon is a content writer for ADCET, and we were thrilled to learn that Ebe has been awarded the Sue Salthouse Award for Championing Human Rights and Equality. This award, part of the ACT Chief Minister's Inclusion Awards, recognises excellence in promoting and fulfilling human rights for people with disability.

As a neurodivergent Canberran and Board Chair of Children and Young People with Disability Australia, Ebe Ganon has amplified the voices of people with disability in policy discussions both nationally and internationally. Representing young Canberrans at the 2025 United Nations Conference of State Parties in New York, Ebe delivered presentations on AI and inclusive education to international delegates, showcasing Canberra’s leadership in disability innovation.

Ebe has also delivered training on neuro-affirming workplaces and clinical practices to more than 100 Canberra Health Services staff. Additionally, through a partnership with Women with Disabilities ACT, Ebe designed and delivered innovative tertiary education self-advocacy workshops for people with disability pursuing higher education – equipping participants with practical skills to navigate the many barriers within university systems.

Congratulations Ebe!
