1
00:00:00,739 --> 00:00:01,859
Awareness of People with Disability

2
00:00:02,378 --> 00:00:03,988
Hello, my name is Icha

3
00:00:04,288 --> 00:00:06,976
I work at the YAKKUM 
(Christian Foundation for Public Health)

4
00:00:07,096 --> 00:00:08,497
in Yogyakarta


5
00:00:09,047 --> 00:00:11,027
YAKKUM Rehabilitation Center is

6
00:00:11,027 --> 00:00:12,845
A social institution

7
00:00:12,845 --> 00:00:14,645
Which works for differently
abled people

8
00:00:15,375 --> 00:00:16,685
In essence, we carry out

9
00:00:16,685 --> 00:00:20,055
Activities towards that

10
00:00:20,055 --> 00:00:21,405
And also trainings

11
00:00:21,405 --> 00:00:25,035
So that children with disabilities 
can be independent

12
00:00:25,035 --> 00:00:27,301
economically

13
00:00:27,301 --> 00:00:30,951
and in their daily activities

14
00:00:32,012 --> 00:00:32,861
For me,

15
00:00:32,861 --> 00:00:34,131
at the YAKKUM Center

16
00:00:34,131 --> 00:00:37,291
I focus on the education of 
children with disabilities

17
00:00:37,291 --> 00:00:40,237
We currently accommodate children

18
00:00:40,237 --> 00:00:42,697
with cerebral palsy

19
00:00:42,697 --> 00:00:45,077
who are rejected in SLBs
(School for disabilities people)

20
00:00:45,077 --> 00:00:46,767
for various reasons, so

21
00:00:46,767 --> 00:00:49,637
Besides education, we fight

22
00:00:49,637 --> 00:00:50,736
For for the rights of

23
00:00:50,736 --> 00:00:52,446
children with cerebral palsy

24
00:00:52,446 --> 00:00:54,746
and Establishment of inclusive schools

25
00:00:54,746 --> 00:00:56,266
In Yogyakarta

26
00:00:57,506 --> 00:00:59,896
Because the Law about

27
00:00:59,896 --> 00:01:02,456
inclusive education is very clear

28
00:01:02,456 --> 00:01:04,206
But in reality

29
00:01:04,206 --> 00:01:06,816
The implementation is still

30
00:01:06,816 --> 00:01:08,466
very less

31
00:01:08,466 --> 00:01:10,156
Where there are still 
many schools

32
00:01:10,156 --> 00:01:12,106
Which reject differently abled children

33
00:01:12,106 --> 00:01:14,736
for various reasons

34
00:01:15,656 --> 00:01:16,906
Because the teachers

35
00:01:16,906 --> 00:01:18,536
in the inclusive school

36
00:01:18,536 --> 00:01:19,766
are also still very dependent

37
00:01:19,766 --> 00:01:22,706
on the special education teachers

38
00:01:22,706 --> 00:01:24,106
So, our focus is

39
00:01:24,696 --> 00:01:27,066
to train existing

40
00:01:27,066 --> 00:01:29,046
teachers in public schools

41
00:01:29,046 --> 00:01:31,716
to no longer depend on

42
00:01:31,716 --> 00:01:33,656
special educators

43
00:01:33,656 --> 00:01:35,976
and can provide adequate services

44
00:01:35,976 --> 00:01:37,846
for special needs children
who attend there

45
00:01:38,496 --> 00:01:40,636
My hope in the future is

46
00:01:40,636 --> 00:01:42,316
that the community will care more

47
00:01:42,316 --> 00:01:44,246
for children with disabilities

48
00:01:44,246 --> 00:01:45,656
Differently abled children

49
00:01:45,656 --> 00:01:46,956
can also be empowered

50
00:01:46,956 --> 00:01:48,586
like normal children

51
00:01:48,586 --> 00:01:51,156
They only need to be given a chance

52
00:01:51,156 --> 00:01:52,966
So that they can develop

53
00:01:52,966 --> 00:01:54,986
up to their potentials

54
00:01:56,176 --> 00:01:58,376
then also for the government

55
00:01:58,376 --> 00:01:59,976
I hope for the future

56
00:01:59,976 --> 00:02:02,346
it does not only enact laws

57
00:02:02,346 --> 00:02:03,126
about inclusive education

58
00:02:03,126 --> 00:02:06,006
but it also increases 
the capacity of the teachers

59
00:02:06,006 --> 00:02:08,156
Otherwise, how can they run

60
00:02:08,156 --> 00:02:10,286
the inclusive education process

61
00:02:10,286 --> 00:02:12,076
Thank you

62
00:02:12,076 --> 00:02:13,336
