Opportunities • Solo serves as a national model for Panti Rehabilitasi • Firm legislative foundation • Dynamic civil society • Accessible information and the existing culture of participation
Challenges The study identified a number of these issues: • Access to public services is uneven and can be distant • Sub-standard educational achievement hinders inclusion in job markets • Disability-friendly infrastructure is inconsistent • The disabled do not have a strong voice nor participate fully in civic life
Participatory and inclusive approaches can help to address unequal power relations in typical survey/ census. They encourage conditions of respect, collaboration, and alliance with disabled persons organizations (DPOs) and persons with disabilities, and include them in all aspects of policy process.
THANK YOU, LET’S DISCUSS!
