In this jam-packed edition,we’re focusing on the topic of education and the part that it plays in the lives of Australian’s living with a disability. We start off by chatting to the incredible Ade Djamihardja who, since acquiring a disability, has dedicated his energy to creating aproject which educated people in the media industry about inclusivity and accessibility when creating content.

“There is an assumption that inclusion and accessibility are the one and the same. But they are two aspects of the experience of disability that lead to each other. Inclusion and access work together, we can’t have one without the other. We can have access without inclusion, but we can’t have inclusion without access.”

Ade Djajamihardja’s expansive broadcast media career began in 1987. Paved from humble beginnings working as a floor manager at ABC TV news, Ade went on to become assistant director on projects such as Countdown Revolution and had an instrumental hand in piloting SBC Singapore’s first ever English language comedy series.
