SPH Kemang Village Director of Learning and Student at SENIA Indonesia Conference 2024
10 Mei 2024
On April 20, 2024, SPH Kemang Village’s Director of Student Support Services, Jami Sefiane, and Grade 11 student, Zara, took part in SENIA Indonesia’s Second Annual Conference in Jakarta.
Held at Jakarta Intercultural School (JIS), this conference brought together educators and leaders passionate about creating inclusive learning environments from all over Jakarta. The theme, “Building a Community of Belonging,” resonated throughout the day’s events, with students taking center stage to share their perspectives and practical strategies. More than 130 attendees participated in sessions designed to build awareness.
In the opening keynote address, Zara, a Grade 11 student from SPH Kemang Village, offered a unique view on inclusivity – the impact of having a neurodiverse family member from the sibling’s perspective. Her insights resonated with many attendees, highlighting the importance of considering the experiences of all members of a school community.
One attendee shared their comment reflecting Zara’s message, “Her speech required courage and was an honest testimony of the challenges, strengths, and moments of extreme pride and happiness that are brought by sharing her life with a neurodivergent sibling. This reality, her reality, is what has an impact as it is what makes people connect with her. The connection brings about awareness for greater inclusion! Well done, Zara!”
