Supporting Statement

How did you choose your proposed course and institution?

I have a passion in disability and I have been working with People With
Disabilities (PWDs) for several years. I observed that just a few people are
interested in this issue. In my Province, East Nusa Tenggara, people who have a
master in disability are rare to find. I also found inappropriate policy and
institutional frame works to fullfill rights of PWDs. I did research on website to
find course in some Australia universities, that are related to social work and
disability. I decided to apply for Master of Disability Policy and Practice by
coursework in Flinders University. I also found that Master of Social work at
The University of Sydney, a unique combination of social work and social
policy would also be suitable for me.

How will the proposed study contribute to your career?

As an administration staff in PRHB institution, I believe that studying course of Disability policy
and practice in Flinders University is intended to provide professional knowledge and the
development of expertise in many areas of disability.
After being successful completion of the course, I will be able to:
 critically discuss and evaluate current theory and research in selected areas of disability
policy and practice demonstrate professional knowledge around a range of conceptual
disability perspectives
 use specialised knowledge to facilitate community participation of people living with
disability
 apply research, problem solving and/or evaluation skills to professional practice
 develop a detailed understanding of the professional practice of disability studies as it
relates to diagnosis, behavioural intervention, social and community education and
employment
 develop skills in the evaluation of disability and allied rehabilitation programs
For instance, I will study a topic such as Design and evaluation of
disability programs. This topic is to provide me with an opportunity to
explore and learn about concepts and models of evaluation and will be able
to demonstrate an understanding of the purposes of evaluation.

How have you contributed to solving a challenge and to implementing

change or reform? (Be specific and include: what aspect/s of your
leadership knowledge, skills and practice you consider to be well
established and effective; which people or organisations you worked with to
solve the problem; and what creative methods were used.)
(Simple Things only. Things that i solved a problem in my workplace)

One of challenges in PRHB is process of establishing a rehabilitation building

for people with disabilities. We began to think how to find funds to build a
rehabilitation to accommodate disabled children ? I and two Catholic Religious
sisters of the Fransiscan Congregation tried to arrange proposals to the local bh,
government and donors in the Nederlands. In 2010, we only got funding from
Nederlands to build a rehabilitation. Sr. Jeanette Van Passen from Nederlands
had a significant contribution to connect us with donors fron Nederlands. After
our proposal was approved, we began to look for local contractor to be able to
work on the condtruction. At that time I was very confused about how to get a
contractor who could compromise with disability-friendly rehabilitation
building. However, after finding an Architectur, a friend of mind for the
building, my brother as a contractor agreed on establishing the building of
rehabilitation. A few months later the PRHB building was completed with six
main rooms. We began to pick up children with disabilities from their houses.
Because of terrain is difficult to reach and we need a car to pick up patients, so
I asked a car from Sr. Jeanette . Sr. Jeanette sent money to buy a car, so that it
could be used for picking up patients. We also keep on talking to head of the
district social service to manage license and other administration to fulfill
rehabilitation establishing requirements. I also made the monthly financial
report for the local government and specially for Sr. Jeanette to be an
accountability. We also always updated patient data and sent every
development of therapy of children with disabilities by videos and pictures to
all of donors. Because of that, we began to get attention from government and
donors from Nederlands. A few monts later, we got funding to build a
fisiotherapy room and a kindergarten. Nico, A man from Nederlands came to
rehabilitation and gave his money to support the building and bought some
wheel chairs, prosthetic limbs and some therapeutic equipment. Belu Regent
gave donation for the kindergarten building.
Please:- a) give up to three practical examples of how you intend to use the
knowledge, skills and connections you will gain from your scholarship.
Possible tasks can be personal and/or professional; and
1. I will go back to Pusat Rehabilitasi Hidup Baru (PRHB) to assist disability
related program planning and evaluation. It could include ensuring people
with disabilities are consulted at all stages of program design,
implementation, and monitoring and evaluation as well as participants in
programs.
2. I will conduct simple training to develop and analyze policy related to disability.
It could include conducting a disability audit to understand the specific
situations and barriers faced by people with disabilities in the community.
Policies responses should emphasize early intervention, the benefit of
rehabilitation to promot functioning in people with a broad range of health
conditions, and the provision of services as close as possible to where people
live.
3. I also will work together with either local NGO or International NGO, PWDs
organization, governments, media and any networking concerned with
disability issues to do policy analyze related to disability. For instance,
beside medical rehabilitation, it is important to focus on educational
rehabilitation and training which intended for person with disabilities get
optimal education and traning in accordance with talent, interests and ability.
So that PWDs can play important role and participate in public sector and even becoming
employees.
b) list any possible constraints you think may prevent you from achieving
these tasks. (Tantangan yg kira2 dihadapi setelah balik
There are several constraints that may prevent me to achieve my goals. Firstly,
It will be a challenge that teacher and parents of children with disabilities will
have attitudes which usually put children at risk of stigma and abuse without
adequate protection. Children with disability are less likely to start school than
their peers without disabilities, and have lower rates of staying and being
promoted in public schools. It will be difficult to direct them for training and
participating in public sector. Secondly, The most crucial aspect for people with
disability is opportunities to get job. The number of people with disabilities who get the
opportunity in available employment is still very small. Very few companies and agencies
knowingly employ people with disabilities. Third, In my regency, there is lack of
commitment of local government to support estabilishing public facilities which are friendly
for people with disabilities.
