Work with us
There are many ways to help build a more inclusive future — through partnership, collaboration, and community. Here is where to start.
Partner with us
We work with community organisations, disability-led groups, educators, researchers, public agencies and mission-aligned partners on accessibility and inclusion. If our purpose aligns with yours, we would like to talk.
Collaborate on research
Our research program supports applied, public-benefit work connected to accessibility and inclusion. Researchers, universities and practitioners can collaborate on evaluation, open datasets and responsible-AI methods.
Volunteer and contribute
Community members, people with lived experience of disability, and volunteers help shape and deliver our programs. Your perspective makes the work better and more accountable — and there is a place for many kinds of contribution.
Bring your community
If you run or belong to a community that experiences barriers to participation, we would like to hear from you. The best programs start with the people they are meant to serve.
A note on donations
Octopus Future is a not-for-profit, but it is not yet an ACNC-registered charity and does not currently hold Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR) endorsement — so gifts are not tax-deductible at this time. We are not soliciting public donations yet. As our charity and fundraising status is confirmed, we will open clear, compliant ways to give. In the meantime, please reach out to explore partnership and support.
