Efforts to overcome the Economic Impact on People with Disabilty during COVID-19 Pandemic

Project leader: Mrs. Anni Juwairiyah

Level of education and university: Non Degree, No

Collaborating Organisations: -

Project Location: Kalimantan Timur

Activity Type: Community development activities

Sector: Disability Services

Project Rationale:

During the COVID-19 pandemic, people with disabilities are the most affected group in the community, considering that they are more vulnerable than other community groups, especially on the economic impact.

This business was initiated early before the COVID-19 pandemic and now the demand for the “Bajakah” ginger powder drink has been increasing rapidly.

However, the current production capacity is merely around 500 packs per month, while the average demand in the last 4 (four) months has reached 1000 packs per month. Therefore, this is a great opportunity to be able to increase the income for DPD PPDI Kaltim members.

Project Beneficiaries:

20 people with disability

Priority Development Area:

Human development for a productive and healthy society
