✊🏽Dream, Diversify, Unite 🔥This video is on fire! As is the disability rights movement in Indonesia. ✨This energizing video features youth and intersectional feminist voices who gathered at DRF's grantee convening in Jakarta, which was co-hosted by Indonesian Association of Women with Disabilities (HWDI). We have much to celebrate as Indonesia’s disability movement diversifies and advocates for inclusive climate and gender justice, dignified livelihoods, inclusive education, independent living for persons with psychosocial disabilities and more. 🚀As DRF’s Dwi Ariyani says, “united and diversified, we are UNSTOPPABLE!” 📣We would love our community to amplify this video far and wide.
