Empower Women, Educate Youth

Overcoming Boundaries: Women Empowering Creativity and Passion through #BatikBercerita 

Visual impairment is a condition of imperfect vision. Individuals with visual limitations, including low vision or total blindness, frequentlyencounter difficulties when engaging in various activities. 

People with visual impairment are often perceived as helpless and incapable of achieving independence, both financially and in non-financial aspects. 

Hence, the establishment of a dedicated space or platform is essential to impart specialized skills to visually impaired individuals, fostering their independence and capabilities. 

Recognizing the challenges faced by the visually impaired, Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa (YCAB), through the Pejuang Anak Bangsa program, undertakes empowerment initiatives for individuals with visual impairments, including batik training conducted at the Batik Learning House. 

One of the Batik Learning Houses founded by Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa (YCAB) is located in Bojong Bata. 

The establishment of the Batik Learning House in Bojong Bata aims to offer substantial support to visually impaired individuals, facilitating the enhancement of their independence. 

Moreover, it is anticipated that the Batik Learning House in Bojong Bata will help visually impaired individuals break free from the cycle of poverty through the education and batik training offered. 

Preserving the Hopes of Students in the Batik Learning Center 

Bayu, a student at the Batik Learning House, openly expressed his high enthusiasm for engaging in this program. He aspires to gain empowerment through the completion of the program offered by Yayasan Cinta Anak Bangsa. 

In the training provided at the Batik Learning House in Bojong Bata, Bayu along with other visually impaired students are taught in designing, creating patterns, and the coloring process involved in batik production. It is hoped that through this program, they can become financially independent young individuals.
