Finding
The SONJO movement initiated by the sub-national government of DI Yogyakarta Province on 24 March 2020 was a humanitarian movement to help members of the public affected by the pandemic through mobilizing non-financial resources, such as time and labor. The action is coordinated with nine WhatsApp Groups with a total membership of 500 individuals. Eight programs under this movement fall into the health, economic, and education sectors. This movement is inclusive as it engages all elements of civil society and people with disabilities.
