Refugee lifestyle simulation. To feel the life of a refugee (in terms of food) to raise awareness about the problem of refugees especially among our Muslim brothers and sisters around the globe. This project is also as a social media campaign in conjunction with Untukmu Syria project dated 13th – 18th March 2018.

How this project works:

With Instagram as the main platform, participants will have to share insights of their challenge on Instagram stories at least three times a day (morning, lunch time and night) as well as share final thoughts and reflections at the end of the challenge in the form of video or photo by using the #LivingUnder2Dollar hashtag depending whether it is a #1DayChallenge or #2DayChallenge.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES

• To make us feel grateful for everything that we have.
• Increase awareness on refugees all around the world especially the Muslim refugees.
• Increase awareness on world hunger problem such as in Africa.
• As a social media campaign for Untukmu Syria project.

BENEFICIARIES OF THE PROJECT

This was the starting point where people heard a lot and grew more interest about our organisation including big social media influencers and news platform which played a major part in building trust of our people to contribute to the ongoing Untukmu Syria project at that time. We managed to get quite a number of people doing the challenge but the actual number of people joining is not exactly known as we didn’t do any registration for this project.

PROJECT BUDGET

NONE

CONCLUSION

Based on thoughts and reflections of those who did the challenge, it is safe to say the objectives of this project were largely achieved.
