Jakarta, August 7th, 2020. All through this Covid-19 pandemic, XL Axiata refuses to cease the initiatives to support programs for the youth. Through AXIS, the annual AXIS POP Up Campus program is being held once again again by adjusting to health protocols. This program runs live via streaming which can be accessed through the Vidio application and the official site (vidio.com). AXIS Pop Up Campus is being held starting from August 7th 2020 throughout three consecutive weeks for 2 whole hours for each session.
Group Head of XL Axiata's Youth Segment, Alfons Eric Bosch Sansa informs, “Even though the Covid-19 case spread is still very high, we know that we must still provide space for young people to remain creative even though most of their activities are being done at home. The very existence of this pandemic challenges AXIS to find the best way for this annual event, so it can still run for the third time this year. Now, we chose live stream media as we’re currently adjusting to other essentials as well. Hopefully, we can still get gain momentum and hype for this event.”
AXIS Pop Up Campus is an activity intended for all high school students, university students, and youth communities throughout Indonesia. In this event, participants would be able to take part in various interesting and useful agendas, such as sharing sessions on various popular themes for young people, starting with relationships and social life, and sessions to broaden their knowledge, along with sessions for education on building personal branding for the future. The speakers for this annual event are competent practitioners and public figures.
In addition, Pop Up Campus also offers various entertainment shows, which include music segments featuring idols or artists of the younger generation. Also, media is available to support youth creativity in the form of art and creative competitions. This time in particular is in the form of a social media challenge named Pop Up Your Voice, which is a challenge for youth to cover Indonesian songs. Last but not least, participants can also take part in various interactive quizzes with interesting prizes.
AXIS invites young people to donate at this year's Pop Up Campus event. By joining the live stream, participants have automatically donated. These collected funds will then be used for various social activities. This donation collection is also a part of the company's collaboration with social organizations, namely, Aksi Cepat Tanggap (ACT) and Kitabisa.com.
