Lesson from the Heart of Java
 

Embark on a journey to Surakarta, where special education unfolds in ways that no textbook could ever fully capture.

Here, teaching is shaped by culture, tradition, and the realities of public schooling. What happens when passion and persistence start to chip away at old barriers? when a system begins to listen to the voices it once overlooked.
