The AJCU-AP held a Short Video Competition for Students of AJCU-AP member institutions from February to June 2022 with the theme, “Covid-19 pandemic as a cannonball moment.” Each member institution was invited to send up to three short videos with a duration of a maximum of 5 minutes per video.

The competition enabled the students from AJCU-AP member institutions to present meaningful videos about the cannonball moment in a unique and creative way. Through videos, the students can serve as an inspiration, motivation and strength for others, especially in the post pandemic era. The videos also promote their universities to other countries.

We are happy to announce the winners of the competition.
