The SDEAS delegation continued its academic engagements in Bali with a visit to Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha (Undiksha), opening a space for meaningful exchange on inclusive education, Deaf education, teacher preparation, and disability-related research.

The discussions brought Philippine and Indonesian perspectives together, highlighting shared challenges and opportunities for learning across different educational contexts. Particular interest was placed on comparative research in Deaf and inclusive education, accessibility in higher education, interpreter and teacher preparation, employment pathways, and technology-supported accessibility.

Beyond knowledge exchange, the engagement opened possibilities for joint research, faculty and student learning opportunities, academic forums, seminars, and future institutional collaboration.

A meaningful step toward building academic partnerships grounded in shared research interests, mutual learning, and a common commitment to advancing inclusive education.

The SDEAS delegationโ€™s visit to Bengkala Village in northern Bali offered a meaningful opportunity to learn from a community where Deaf and Hearing people share a unique language and a strong sense of belonging.

Bengkala, also known as โ€œDesa Kolokโ€ or โ€œDeaf Village,โ€ has a long history of hereditary deafness spanning several generations. From this history emerged Kata Kolok, a local sign language that developed within the community and is used by both Deaf and Hearing residents in everyday life, including social, educational, religious, and community settings. Research has found that a significant portion of the hearing population also uses Kata Kolok.

What makes Bengkala particularly meaningful is not simply the presence of a Deaf community, but how Deafness has become part of the communityโ€™s social and cultural life. The visit allowed SDEAS to experience this community perspective firsthand and reflect on how inclusion can take shape through shared language, relationships, and participation.

For the delegation, Bengkala was more than a place to visit; it was a place to listen, observe, and learn. It offered another perspective on Deaf communities and reminded us that there are many ways to build inclusive communities around the world.

Sometimes, the most meaningful lessons come from simply being open to another communityโ€™s way of seeing, communicating, and living.
