🏢 About the local organisation
This is the first IVS project for PAUD Inklusi Tersenyum (Inclusive Pre School “Tersenyum) who provides space of interaction, education and social integration for children with disabilities (difabilities) and non difable in Boyolali near Solo, the city of culture in Central Java. With the same spirit between GREAT and the difable community founded by Ms. Titik Isnani, the anyone can be the agent of change toward world peace in any aspect of humanity, GREAT local volunteers has been making school visits monthly and did one mini workcamp in 2018 to get to know and experience deeper the people and the issue try to be promoted by the local community.
The inclusivity for difable people and their families is still unpopular for many Indonesians especially in village area. Boyolali, even thou it is located next to Solo, an international cultural city, still has to raise awareness strongly in the local level on the difable rights of education, social interaction and integration. Stigma on the difable people to be non educated and useless need to be changed in the mind of people. Families who have difable children need to be encouraged to be strong and to keep their children at school. IVS, particularly international workcamp will bring international volunteers and national ones into the school and neighborhood with more interaction and isocial intergration activities that is expected to bring more diversity and solidarity to the humanity for these difables.
