More than 25 DNetwork users were given a tour of the hotel and its facilities, alongside presentations on the types of jobs available at a 5-star resort like Alaya.

This orientation event was made possible by the generous support of Destination Asia, a travel company in Bali that provided transportation assistance to the attendees. Destination Asia is also a DNetwork partner organisation and collaborates with them to employ people with disabilities.
DNetwork is looking forward to continuing its partnerships with Alaya Hotels and Destination Asia in the future.

In November, DNetwork held an event at the Annika Linden Centre to celebrate the launch of a new video showcasing some of their success stories. The video was created in partnership with the local video production company Satu Bumi Jaya, with funding from the US Consulate General Surabaya. Representatives from companies and disability support organizations attended the event and each shared their experiences and hopes for the progress of the disability sector. Attendees included Christine Getzler-Vaughan from the US Consulate General Surabaya, as well as representatives from Satu Bumi Jaya, Dash Hotel Seminyak, Alaya Hotels, Gerkatin Bali, Bali Deaf Community, Buffalo Tours, YPK Bali, Puspadi Bali, Pradnyagama, Pertuni Bali, Movenpick Resort Bali, and Happy Trails Asia!

DNetwork looks forward to working closely with these wonderful partners in the future to promote and support the employment of people with disabilities in Indonesia. To watch the video, please visit bit.ly/DNetworkVideoEng!

DNetwork works hard every day to connect jobseekers with disabilities with open-minded and supportive businesses across Indonesia.

They are now partnering with the Ayana Resort and Spa in Nusa Dua, which has hired two members of the Bali deaf community, Gunawan and Adhit. Gunawan works as a florist and Adhit as a Garde Manger kitchen hand.

Clive Edwards, General Manager of Ayana, said “it was important for us to select the right partner who was aligned to our values. DNetwork presented the correct option as their organisation, efforts and concern for the people drawn to them was unmatched.”

Ayana is just one of DNetwork’s fantastic partners. The DNetwork team are proud to work with many leading organisations across Indonesia, providing jobs and working to remove the stigma associated with people with disabilities.

DNetwork staff were on hand at the Ministry of Manpower job fairs in East Java and Bali during September 2018, providing support and advice to jobseekers with disabilities, as well as accepting job applications for current vacancies available at DNetwork platform. Attending events like these is a regular occurrence for DNetwork, to promote inclusivity in the workforce. Over 50 job seekers with disabilities attended and discussed their situations with DNetwork. It helped us understanding the needs of the jobseekers and at the same time help them understanding the employment matters. Such excellent collaboration with the Ministry of Manpower provides not only job opportunities but also equality for people with all ability.

DNetwork manages a platform for companies to advertise jobs for people with disabilities, and works to connect these companies with potential jobseekers. Collective collaborations among everyone involved plays critical role to create an inclusive workforce in Indonesia. DNetwork team is looking forward to meeting more potential jobseekers and partner companies at the upcoming events in October.
