Abstract

Social stigma against children with intellectual barriers is still a serious problem at various levels of society. Intellectual barriers are often seen as absolute weaknesses, leading to discrimination, social rejection, and limited access to education and an inclusive environment. This research aims to identify the forms of stigma that arise, the factors that influence them, and their impact on the psychosocial development of children and their families. The method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach. The results of the study show that stigma arises from a lack of understanding, cultural influences, and deeply rooted negative stereotypes. This stigma not only hinders children's growth and development, but also reduces parents' confidence in accompanying their children. Therefore, a comprehensive strategy is needed that includes public education, the implementation of inclusive policies, and the empowerment of families and schools in creating an environment that accepts and supports children with intellectual disabilities. Efforts to eliminate stigma are the first step towards a more just, inclusive, and humane society for children with intellectual barriers.

Abstract

Social stigma against children with intellectual disabilities is a serious issue that is still often encountered in various aspects of life, from education to social involvement. This stigma manifests in the form of social avoidance, negative labeling, discrimination, and violence, which have a significant impact on the growth and well-being of the child and their family. This article aims to analyze the various forms, causes, and consequences of social stigma faced by children with intellectual disabilities and to explore ways to reduce that stigma. This analysis was conducted using a literature review method that includes context, methodology, and theory. Data were obtained from scientific articles published between 2020 and 2025, accessed via Google Scholar; a total of 10 articles were analyzed. The findings of the analysis indicate that stigma remains a significant barrier for children with intellectual disabilities in obtaining their rights fairly, especially in the fields of education and social welfare. Nevertheless, approaches such as family and community support and the implementation of inclusive education have proven effective in reducing that stigma. Through collaborative efforts from various parties, an inclusive environment free from discrimination for children with intellectual disabilities can be realized.

Abstract

Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membahas peran pendidikan multikultural dalam memberdayakan siswa berkebutuhan khusus di sekolah dasar. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi literatur dengan pendekatan deskriptif-analitis, yaitu dengan menganalisis berbagai sumber data dan publikasi yang relevan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pendidikan multikultural dapat menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang dapat menerima dan menghargai keberagaman peserta didik, termasuk mereka yang berkebutuhan khusus, sehingga mereka dapat mengakses pendidikan secara efektif. Artikel ini juga memaparkan strategi dan metode pendidikan multikultural yang dapat diintegrasikan ke dalam pendidikan dasar yang inklusif, serta peran penting dalam memberdayakan siswa berkebutuhan khusus untuk meningkatkan kemampuan sosial, komunikasi, dan belajar independen. Dengan demikian, pendekatan terpadu antara pendidikan multikultural dan pendidikan inklusif dapat menciptakan lingkungan pendidikan yang lebih adil, inklusif, dan beragam, serta membantu semua siswa untuk mendapatkan akses dan dukungan yang mereka butuhkan untuk mencapai potensinya secara menyeluruh.
