To investigate the perspectives and lived experiences of students with special needs concerning accessibility, social inclusion, and university support within higher education.
Qualitative case study conducted at Universitas Negeri Surabaya (UNESA) in Indonesia.
Conducted semi-structured online interviews via Zoom with 15 university students presenting with deafness, blindness, physical disabilities, autism, quadriplegia, or cerebral palsy (N=15).
Extracted three core qualitative themes: the critical necessity of suitable physical and academic accommodations, opportunities for meaningful social integration, and access to university resources.
