This workshop was a key component of the Anti-Corruption Creative Content and Journalism Competition program, titled “Suarakan Aksimu (Voice Your Actions).”
Throughout the event, our students had the opportunity to engage in insightful discussions and hands-on learning sessions led by esteemed professionals, Ica Lawendattu and Vicky Amin. They delved deep into the significance of visual communication and the art of crafting powerful, influential messages that can drive change and raise awareness about anti-corruption efforts.
We extend our sincere gratitude to the KPK for not only inviting us to this important event but also for equipping our students with valuable knowledge and skills that will undoubtedly enhance their future careers. This experience has inspired and motivated them to contribute meaningfully to the fight against corruption through their creative work.
