Standing up for my disabled village

Outlook

Available for over a year

Eko Mulyadi is from the remote mountainous village of Karangpatihan in Eastern Java, Indonesia. What sets this tiny hamlet apart is the unusually high number of people with mental and physical disabilities - four times the national average. Life is tough for them, but Eko has taken it upon himself to do something to help. Candida Beveridge went to meet him for Outlook.
