Freedom to Move

Incensed by the lack of accessibility for the disabled in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, Triyono, a polio survivor, started Difa in 2015, the city’s first, affordable taxi service for people with disabilities (PWDs).

He has custom-built vehicles that safely and comfortably transport wheelchair users around the city. Difa also hires and trains drivers with milder forms of disability.

From Wheelchairs to Motorbikes, is a 360 VR story that brings the viewer on an empathetic journey with PWDs in an inaccessible city.

This story was done in partnership with The MeshMinds Foundation.
