Dwi Ariyani

I am a human rights activist and a movement builder. I have twenty years of experience in disability rights and inclusion working with grassroots, national, regional, and international organizations of persons with disabilities to advance disability rights. As a woman with a disability from a village in Indonesia, I am a passionate advocate for advancing our rights and ensuring our voices are heard in every decision-making process affecting our lives. I am a recipient of the 2020 Women of Distinction Award from the NGO Committee on the Status of Woman, New York.

I am a proud mother and a wife who loves spending my spare time traveling with my family and being in nature. I hold a diploma in computer technology.
