    With the Act No. 8 the Year 2016, the equal rights of people with disabilities are acknowledged by the Indonesian Government following UNCRPD demand. Act No. 20 Year 2003, the education of People with Disabilities has been translated into the special schools for children with Disabilities and inclusive educational schools (JICA et al., 2015). However, the implementation is found not effective (Edwards, 2014). And many inclusive schools fail supporting the People with Disabilities (JICA et al., 2015). Schools and Libraries are found essential for learning and preserving various collections. Therefore, Inclusive Decision Making or Inclusive Design (ID) framework is needed to create more inclusive education. Further I want to present - Experiencing as People with Disabilities - Why I am interested in Service-Learning with Disabilities? - Literature Review of Inclusive Design - Explanation on Inclusive Design Course in PCU - Sharing Sample of Improving Access for All in Library@Petra - Conclusio

    The Feng Shui, the wind-water, is a Chinese system of geomancy using the laws of both Heaven and Earth for harmony and balance of life with the positive qi. Feng Shui is widely used to orient temples, palaces, shops, houses, and other structures, with the reference to local features such as bodies of water, stars, or a compass. The Feng Shui also informs the physical arrangements for manipulation and channeling the qi (positive or negative energy). Although Feng Shui is related to traditional believe and propitious manner, but some of its principles are rational. The current research is conducted to investigate any positive impacts of the Feng Shui application in modern house design. A house in Jakarta designed with Feng Shui was analyzed. The strategies were later examined based on the sustainable architectural design principles, especially its impact on the house functionality

    Madura as one small island in East Java Province, Indonesia faced many challenges due to limited transportation connectivity, limited water resources and karst geology. Due to this reasons, the Government of Indonesia proposed a strategic plan to improve the development of the island to Surabaya, the largest port for the Eastern of Indonesia. It was started with building the Surabaya – Madura (SuraMadu) Bridge with 5.7 km length in 2003. The bridge was finally completed in 2009, improving the traffic flow into the island and development of Madura Island. Unfortunately, the strategy would not be comprehensive without strategic development of the Madura Island, especially in Bangkalan District (Kabupaten Bangkalan). The Central Government has proposed a Green Industry with zero waste and clean energy concept. This industry and port would process the agriculture products from Madura for the export and Eastern part of Indonesia market. Therefore, an industrial ecology concept was needed to achieve the sustainable green industry for Eastern of Indonesia

    Rumah yang aksesibel dan layak merupakan hak yang penting untuk warga Kota (termasuk difabel (penyandang cacat), usiawan (senior), ibu hamil, orang yang membawa barang dan lain � lain). Maka dalam mata kuliah BELAJAR SAMBIL MENGABDI (SERVICE � LEARNING) Desain Inklusi kali ini dikembangkan Redesain Rumah atau Tempat Tinggal untuk YPAB, YPAC, BILIC Kampung Bratang Tangkis dan Jalan Bibis. Kegiatan ini dilakukan bekerjasama dengan Yayasan Pendidikan Anak Buta (YPAB), Yayasan Pendidikan Anak Cacat (YPAC), Bandung Independent Living Center (BILIC), Paguyuban Warga Strenkali Surabaya (PWSS). Selain itu kegiatan ini juga bekerjasama dengan Ibu Paulina Mayasari S.Sn. karena keunikan rumahnya yang digunakan pengguna senior dan letaknya di Jalan Bibis (dalam Kawasan Kota Lama Surabaya). Kebutuhan desain tempat tinggal ini menjadi unik karena setiap pengguna memiliki spektrum difabilitas (disabilitas) yang berbeda. Kami memilih spektrum yang bervariasi ini agar dapat menjelaskan perbedaan desain inklusif dari desain universal yang ada. Desain Inklusif ini dikenal didefinisikan sebagai �Rancangan produk mainstream dan/atau jasa yang dapat diakses, dan digunakan oleh sebanyak mungkin orang secara wajar. Hal ini berarti desain ini dihasilkan secara menyeluruh, memperhatikan spektrum pengguna dan melibatkan pengguna dalam proses desainnya. Hal ini agak berbeda dengan Desain Universal adalah desain standar yang mewadahi spektrum yang luas dari ide - ide perencanaan arsitektur untuk menghasilkan bangunan, produk dan lingkungan yang lebih aksesibel baik bagi individu berbadan sehat dan berkemampuan berbeda (penyandang cacat). Karena itulah Proses Desain Inklusi-lah yang dipilih. Karena terkait dengan mata kuliah maka dilakukan beberapa tahapan seperti : kuliah tentang Desain Rumah yang Mewadahi Pengguna, kajian pustaka, penjajakan ke Masyarakat dan pengurusan perijinan, wawancara dan dokumentasi foto, desain oleh mahasiswa dan dosen, Lokakarya Desain, penyempurnaan desain dan pelaporan akhir. Hal ini sesuai dengan rekomendasi proses desain inklusi di atas. Tahapan di atas akan menghasilkan desain rumah yang aksesibel. Sehingga rumah yang dihasilkan akan lebih berkelanjutan dan dapat diterima oleh pengguna, karena memperhitungkan kebiasaan setempat (pengetahuan lokal). Kelima desain ini yang dijelaskan dalam buku ini merupakan gambaran awal bagi para pengguna agar dapat menuntut kepada Pemerintah, Pihak Swasta dan Masyarakat lainnya fasilitas yang lebih aksesibel. Selain itu juga pengguna yang berbeda dapat mengadakan secara swadaya untuk rumah yang lebih aksesibel dan layak

    Understanding the differences among Universal Design and Inclusive Design implementation: Context of Indonesian Public Library

    Get PDF
    The promotion and protection of the rights of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) are central to the UN Convention on the Rights of People with Disabilities (UNCPRPD), which is adopted in the Republic of Indonesia. Following the recommendation of UNCRPD, several Indonesian national regulatory policies advocate for the rights of PwDs and Universal Design (UD) implementation. The legislation operates over three jurisdiction levels adding complexity to disability policies in the country. In the case of buildings such as public libraries this is particularly problematic. Recognising that the public library�s role is in the PwDs education and of the educational facilities improvement in previous research, this paper reports on a study to identify the barriers and opportunities for the Universal Design (UD) or Inclusive Design (ID) of Public Libraries in Indonesia. A concept that is often used interchangeably with ID is Universal Design (UD). As described by Mace (1985), Universal Design (UD) can be defined as �The design of products and environments to be usable by all people, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design.� Therefore, UD recommends a standardised design that can be used by every user. Connell et al. (1997) prescribe seven UD principles, including: Equitable Use; Flexibility in Use; Size and Space for Approach and Use; Low Physical Effort Tolerance for Error; Simple and Intuitive Use; and Perceptible Information. One achievement of the UD field is the American Disability Act (ADA) 2010 (United States Access Board, 2010) regulating the minimum standards for building accessibility for various building functions. Despite this positive contribution, the UD concept is often criticised such as by Imrie & Hall (2001) for its utopian view that, in the end, fails to deliver on its goal of catering to all users� needs. In addition, the implementation of UD in conventional design practice has not been effective because of weak ADA 2010 implementation, limited UD education, and the weak role of the American Institute of Architects in UD education and professional development. Firstly, the ADA 2010 (United States Access Board, 2010) does not require the stakeholders such as architects, engineers, and building owners to consider additional users needs contributing to frequent neglect of users needs. For many stakeholders their primary concern is profitability, subsequently PwDs are not considered or involved in the design process (Fletcher et al., 2015). Hamraie (2016) also draws to attention incompatibility between PwDs needs and UD regulation confirming that accessibility issues for PwDs are often neglected in mainstream design practice. In contrast, in ID development, there are several definitions of ID, ranging from the micro-level (product design) to the macro-level (interior design, architecture, landscape, and urban planning). ID in product and service design is defined as �The design of mainstream products and services that are accessible to, and usable by, as many people as reasonably possible ... without the need for special adaptation or specialised design.� (The British Standards Institution, 2005). In Architecture, ID is described in the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment/ CABE (2008, p. 12) as �a process of designing, building, managing and populating places and spaces that ensures that they work for as many people as possible, not just some groups. It encompasses where people live and the public buildings they use, such as health centres, education facilities, and libraries; and how they get around�neighbourhoods, streets, parks, and green spaces and transport.� The BS 7000-6 guideline (The British Standards Institution, 2005) has promoted the ID application in the United Kingdom (UK). It is also a part of the BS 7000 series on Design Management Systems for ID implementation to every category of services and products. In addition, ID is equated with dignity, treatment and assistance of PwDs in response to the specific needs of PwDs. Therefore, from an ID perspective, building designers are compelled to consider users� particular needs current and future (CABE, 2008, p. 12). Recognising the need for resources in this area, the University of Cambridge (2018) proposed various practical tools and design guidelines for managers and designers to implement within the business context. The ID toolkit also includes the expectation that stakeholders provide input in the design process and that everyone embraces user diversity. Meanwhile, the ID process involves the life-cycle of stages, such as (University of Despite this work and the availability of these resources, in the Indonesian context, the USA�s UD concept is more accepted than the UK understanding of ID. It is reflected in the adoption of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in to Indonesian regulation in the Act no 4, Year 1997 on Disabled Persons. The ADA is also further reflected in the Act no 8, Year 2016 on People with Disabilities that subsides the Act no 4. Year 1997. This paper argues that this choice reinforces a medical model of Government Services towards the PwDs, including educational services. An exception in Indonesia is recognition of the ID concept which was vaguely adopted after the United Nations Habitat 3 of Inclusive City and which advocated the need for inclusive engagement has to consider social inclusion, gender and other social equality issues. Unfortunately, many ID recommendations remain misunderstood and are not implemented by stakeholders causing poor accessibility in public spaces (Edwards, 2014). In response, Kusumastuti, Pradanasari & Ratnawati (2014) recommend increasing the educational level of People with Disabilities to create inclusive employment and generally increase public awareness of the need for Disability inclusion. Adioetomo, Mont & Irwanto (2014) also support the argument for developing an inclusive education system and facilities. This paper reports on a case study of a selected Indonesian Public Library. In particular, the study aims to investigate the barriers and critical success points of implementing ID in public libraries through Indonesian stakeholders perspectives. The study uses a Grounded Theory (GT) methodology supported by Case Study Research (CSR), and a Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) framework. It involves document evaluation, stakeholder interviews, and walkthrough evaluations of the public library environments

    The Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) as A Method in Case Study Research: Analysing the Accessibility of Library Design

    Get PDF
    Case Study research often uses different methods to analyse the rich data that is collected. This paper presents a new method for Case Study research, the Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE). This is a method that is often used an auditing tool for design but has the potential to be employed in different ways when coupled with Case Study research. This presentation will discuss the historical use of the Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) and how it can be adapted for use in qualitative research more generally. Furthermore, an example of how the Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) can be implemented in case study research will be discussed through a study at the library of the Petra Christian University, Indonesia that was conducted in 2017. This case study was to an analyse the accessibility of the library for physical access but also access to education. This case study involved the collection of a rich data set through interviews, focus groups, photos, and walk-through audits with key stakeholders, management and people with disabilities. Through the use of the Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) method it provided a framework for understanding how all of the different data sources could be collected together and organized. This presentation will discuss the use of the Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) method in new and innovative ways and evidence its potential to not only provide a framework to collect data, but also to organize and analyse the data to inform case study research practices
