Barriers to engage in work and social activities for individuals with SCI in Indonesia are combination of physical limitations, lack of accessibility, stigma, and institutional barriers. The capacity of social networks such as family in facilitating participation should be strengthened during the VR processes. VR should provide marketing skills and link self-employed clients with the market, in collaboration with the private sector and industries. Immediate policy and programmatic action is needed to enable these individuals to enhance sustainable work and social participation.
