The Pandemic Keeps Us at a Distance

Winda, an English education student at UHAMKA, in collaboration with her friends from various study programs students in the Faculty of Education to run a teaching program intended for children who cannot attend school. 

She joined a program on her campus called UCFOS (UHAMKA College for Students) since 2nd semester. Winda regularly conducts this activity with his friends every Saturday. They explore the Pasar Induk Kramat Jati and Kampung Tengah to invite the children to study together. However, due to the pandemic since March 2020, these activities must be stopped until an indefinite time. This causes them to be distant and unable to carry out their usual activities. They cannot even learn with the online system because not all children have gadgets.

At the present time, Winda and the UCFOs team hope that this pandemic will end soon so that they can get back to learning, playing, and sharing stories with children like in the past.
