#CreatewithCOVID

#CreatewithCOVID Virtual Campaign

Location: Chennai (India)

#CreatewithCOVID is a special on-demand campaign where we are inviting young people to talk, engage, and share content about the needs and aspirations of today’s GenZ.

We have packed the virtual campaign with a lot of themes around fitness, activism, DIY, architecture/spaces we need, relationships, business, freelancing, design, sustainable fashion, and much more, in the hopes to churn out valid and creative information through the voices of Youth creators to fight the pandemic as well as infodemic. Among the array of webinars, education classes and humongous information put out there for young people; we feel that it’s important to design the campaign with and for young people and not just put out anything for you to receive. We are looking for creators and maybe, we are looking for you!

P.S. We know that during these times of #coronavirus, it is okay to be not okay; and this campaign also takes that into consideration very carefully. We have enabled this global virtual space especially for people who wish to vent out their creative work with a larger community. If you think this campaign is something you can avoid and relax; please do that! It is also okay not to create anything and productivity is something we can definitely avoid. Peace! #NoFOMO #WeareJOMO #JOMO #ChillMode
