SAPDA Jogja

What SAPDA Jogja does

SAPDA - Sentra Advokasi Perempuan, Difabel dan Anak, legally Yayasan Sentra Advokasi Perempuan, Difabel dan Anak, is a Yogyakarta-based nonprofit foundation (yayasan) founded in 2014 (with firmographic sources also noting 2005) that advocates for the rights of women, persons with disabilities, and children in Indonesia. Its core service lines include free legal counseling through Rumah Cakap Bermartabat (RCB), crisis response and case accompaniment for survivors of gender-based and disability-based violence through the Woman Disability Crisis Center (WDCC), and the Sekolah Riset Penyandang Disabilitas disability research training program delivered with KONEKSI and CBM Global. SAPDA also runs an institutional court inclusivity program, having signed formal MoUs with at least nine Indonesian courts (including PN Yogyakarta, PN Karanganyar, PN Batam, PN Jakarta Pusat, PT DKI Jakarta, PN Cikarang, PN Subang, PT Yogyakarta, and PA Yogyakarta) and engaging with 70+ courts nationwide on accessibility infrastructure, judicial ethics training, and personal assessment procedures aligned with the Supreme Court's PERMA No. 2 Tahun 2025.

The organization operates with approximately 14 employees under Director Nurul Sa'adah Andriani, with a Program Manager (Ayatulloh) and Finance Manager (Renny Indah Budi Setyaningrum). It does not develop proprietary technology; it uses standard office IT, accessibility tools, and communication platforms, and publishes knowledge products including Buletin SAPDA newsletters, inclusive court training modules, and policy notes. Its go-to-market is community-led: outreach is conducted through peer counselors (konselor sebaya), disability people's organizations (DPOs), and specialized units such as Gerkatin Sleman and ITMI for Deaf and blind community engagement, plus partnerships with Rifka Annisa and P2TP2A Yogyakarta for gender-based violence case handling.

SAPDA's revenue model is grant-funded, with the Australian Government's Australia Indonesia Partnership for Justice 2 (AIPJ2) as the primary financial backer for court inclusivity and disability rights programming. Additional funding comes from Habitat for Humanity Indonesia for the ACCESS project (climate-resilient communities with GEDSI training in Nglipar, Gunung Kidul), KONEKSI and CBM Global for the research school, and program collaborations with academic institutions such as Magister Hukum Kesehatan Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM). All services to end beneficiaries are provided free of charge; revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the organization is unlisted and privately held.

Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Women Enabled International: International advocacy organization advancing the rights of women and girls with disabilities globally. Operates in the same intersectional advocacy niche as SAPDA but at international/policy level rather than grassroots service delivery.

Direct peers

• Rifka Annisa: Yogyakarta-based women's crisis center providing legal aid, counseling, and GBV case handling. Already an active SAPDA partner via WDCC paralegal training, making it the most directly comparable peer in both geography and service mix (legal counseling + GBV casework for women).
• SIGAB (Sasana Inklusi dan Gerakan Advokasi Difabel): Yogyakarta/Jakarta-based disability rights and inclusion advocacy organization. Comparable to SAPDA in its disability-rights specialization and grassroots advocacy approach, with overlapping DPO networks.
• HWDI (Himpunan Wanita Disabilitas Indonesia): Indonesian national association of women with disabilities, advocating for rights and inclusion across health, education, and justice. SAPDA and HWDI serve the same primary beneficiary population with overlapping advocacy mandates.
• LBH APIK (Lembaga Bantuan Hukum Asosiasi Perempuan Indonesia untuk Keadilan): Indonesian legal aid organization focused on women's access to justice, providing litigation support and rights advocacy. Closely comparable to SAPDA's RCB legal counseling model and overlapping in the women's-justice funder ecosystem.

Broad incumbents

• Humanity & Inclusion (formerly Handicap International): Large international NGO working on disability inclusion in health, rehabilitation, and rights across low- and middle-income countries. Comparable to SAPDA's mission but with global scale, paid staff, and country-office infrastructure SAPDA lacks.
• Light for the World: International disability-inclusive development NGO active in inclusive eye health, education, and economic empowerment. Comparable to SAPDA's inclusion advocacy work and active in Indonesia through partner networks.
• CBM Global: International disability-inclusive development organization currently funding SAPDA's Sekolah Riset. Operates globally across disability rights, inclusive health, and education — overlapping with SAPDA's mission but at a vastly larger scale.
