Young designers work together in designing the face of Kompas newspaper pages for the special Sumpah Pemuda (Youth Pledge) edition at the Kompas editorial office, Jakarta, on Friday (27/10). To celebrate Youth Pledge day, Kompas newspaper collaborated with dozens of young designers in designing Kompas pages with a touch of art.

JAKARTA, KOMPAS – At a time when politics and the economy give little latitude to young people, they actively seek their own space for expression. Through their own creativity and ingenuity, Indonesian youth are advancing their nation. This movement gives new hope for a better future for Indonesia.

The youth are now creating their own space for expression. Those at the Maarif Institute, for instance, are active in protecting values of diversity, tolerance, unity and peace that have been threatened recently. “A handful of political elites are using radical groups to advance their own political interests. There must be a counter-discourse against such movements,” Maarif Institute executive director Muhammad Abdullah Darraz, 33, said in Jakarta on Thursday.
