Barista Eko Sugeng makes coffee on Wednesday (11/12/2019) at Cupable Coffee, a cafe located at the Yakkum Rehabilitation Center in Ngaglik district, Sleman, Yogyakarta.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS —Despite 21.8 million Indonesians – around 8.56 percent of the country’s total population – living with disabilities, the government lacks disaggregated data based on a variety of disabilities. This hinders the process of establishing inclusive development policies, consequently making it difficult to fulfill the rights of disabled persons.

In order to implement inclusive development and ensure equality for disabled persons, the Social Affairs Ministry’s directorate of disabled persons’ social rehabilitation has initiated the Disabled Persons Information System (SIMPD) that can be accessed at https://simpd.kemsos.go.id. Currently, disaggregated data based on a variety of disabilities has included 185,000 persons.
