CBM Student Mobility Program

June 14, 2025– Angklung and Photography Day

The GSU students immersed themselves in two creative sessions: playing the traditional Indonesian angklung and joining a photography workshop.

Through the angklung, they experienced the beauty of harmony and teamwork, realizing how each note contributes to a collective melody—just like how collaboration builds stronger communities. In the photography workshop, they explored visual storytelling and the art of capturing emotions, culture, and moments that speak beyond words.

These experiences deepened their cultural appreciation, enhanced their creative expression, and reminded them that music and images are powerful tools that connect people—regardless of background. It was another meaningful chapter in their student mobility journey, blending artistry with intercultural learning. 🌍✨
