Habibie Festival 2019

From Thursday, October 17, 2019 until Saturday, October 19, 2019, 25 students of IULI (International University Liaison Indonesia) from all faculties and majors participated in the Habibie Festival, an event held each year by PT Orbit Ventura Indonesia, which focuses on facilitating a better understanding of how science and technology can improve the lives of citizens in developing countries.  The festival itself offered a useful experience of science, technology & innovation by giving visitors a chance to look, touch & feel technology & innovation through the various activities provided. The festival was divided into three main themes over three days:  day one was about the IEF International Youth Forum, day two was about the Indonesia Education Forum, and day three was about continuing the legacy of Eyang, our Bapak Teknologi-Almarhoum,  Prof.Dr.Ing.H.B.J.Habibie.

Students of IULI helped in this prestigious event and were assigned all sorts of jobs and assignments as volunteers. A good example was where they worked as MCs for the event with the theme of Indonesia Education Forum;  another example was where our students helped to organize different workshops;  and yet another  example was where students were assigned as photographers to take pictures of the event.
