IDEA (Intellectual Disability Exploring Answers) DatabaseThe IDEA database has information on all children born in Western Australia since 1983 who have been identified with an intellectual disability. IDEA is one of the only population-based resources in the world dedicated to intellectual disability. Information is accessed from the Department of Communities WA, the WA Department of Education, and the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA) to create the database. From IDEA, it has been found that one in 50 children in Australia are diagnosed with intellectual disability. IDEA can be linked by Data Services WA with other datasets, to facilitate research into the determinants, outcomes and service needs of children and adults with intellectual disability.
