SDG #10: Reduced Inequalities

The perception that deaf individuals cannot enjoy or perform music is still commonly found in society. The assumption that music can only be accessed through hearing has long become a stigma that limits the expressive space of the deaf community. Through her latest academic work, Dr. Drijastuti Jogjaningrum, M.A., a lecturer in the Music Education Study Program at the Faculty of Languages, Arts, and Culture (FBSB), Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY), seeks to challenge this perception through her book entitled Exploring the Wonders of Deaf Musicality.
