Revival for Our Dignity

REDIAL 2.0 · Theme: Revival

Concept & audienceDisability inclusion2022 – 2023

1Social Issue

  • BPS records 8.56% of Indonesians, around 21 million people, living with disabilities.
  • Stigma persists, especially at work, despite the legal quota of one worker with disability per 100 employees.
  • Many people with disabilities still hesitate to step forward.

2Target Audience

  • Primary: youth aged 15–25, led by Telkom University and FKB students.
  • Beneficiaries: people with disabilities, through Yayasan Rinjani.
  • Partners: disability advocates, schools, bands and media partners.

3Creative Concept

  • Theme “Revival”: the courage to rise, imagine and create.
  • Tagline “Revival for Our Dignity”, with an Art Spooky visual identity.
  • #ReviveDisability and #ReviveWithUs carried the message across channels.

Why Music for a Social Cause

Music lowers the barrier to entry. A concert brings young audiences into the room; the talkshow and donation call then turn attention into empathy and action. Entertainment is the hook, inclusion is the message.

The #ReviveWithUs Campaign

REDIAL 2.0 · Committee · Oct 2022 – Feb 2023

Pre-event campaignInstagram Live & contentOct 2022 – Feb 2023

1Education

  • Ready to Talk: 5 Instagram Live sessions, October–December 2022.
  • Speakers with lived experience from Rumah Disabilitas, PERTUNI Jawa Timur and Yayasan Rinjani, plus writer Habibie Afsyah.
  • Topics from inclusive environments to “See the ability, not the disability”.

2Social Content

  • An education series on disability, inclusive employers and role models such as Stevie Wonder.
  • Sign-language campaign videos under #ReviveWithUs and #ReviveDisability.
  • Teaser content that built anticipation for the main event.

3Call to Action

  • Ready to Do: an open donation for Yayasan Rinjani, serving children with disabilities aged 0–17.
  • Promoted through QR posters and Instagram until the main event.
  • Rp1,000,000 handed over on stage at the main event.

Strategic Takeaway

Education built empathy before the campaign asked for anything. By the time the donation call came, the audience understood the cause, so giving felt like participation rather than charity.

Process

1

Talkshow

Johan Edward Tampubolon, owner of “Foodcourt With Disability”, on inclusion at work.

2

Choir

An opening performance by the SMKN 3 Bandung choir.

3

Bands

A student band showcase: Mellifluous, Initial Ways and Prise.

4

Headliner

Juicy Luicy closed the night as guest star.

Experience Flow

Message first, then celebration: the talkshow opened, and energy built from choir to bands to the headliner.

Message Integration

The donation call ran through the live music, so the cause stayed on stage all night, not only in the talkshow.

Format Decision

Proposed an intimate concert: fewer seats for COVID safety, close enough for the guest star to talk with the crowd.

Running the Show

REDIAL 2.0 · Main event · 17 Feb 2023

Event operationsRundown, talent, execution17 February 2023

1Planning

  • Built the minute-by-minute rundown, from crew call to closing.
  • Wrote and presented the proposal that won faculty approval to host the concert on campus.
  • Assigned a liaison officer to every talent: guest star, MC, speaker and bands.

2Talent

  • Benchmarked the talent line-up against budget, from national headliners to student bands.
  • Secured the main event talkshow speaker and the MC line-up.
  • Scheduled sound checks and stage time for every act.

3Execution

  • Coordinated with decoration, logistics, publication, field and sponsorship divisions.
  • Part of a 60+ person committee under the chairman and steering committee.
  • Cut seats ~65% from a 1,000 capacity for COVID safety and proposed the intimate format.

Strategic Takeaway

The faculty trusted the proposal, and the plan earned it. A safer, smaller format and a liaison for every talent turned COVID limits into a closer show that ran on time.

What Worked

Pairing a headliner with a cause: the concert drew the crowd; the talkshow and donation gave the night its meaning.

What I’d Do Next

Track attendance, donation conversion and post-event sentiment, to report impact beyond the donation total.

Strategic Value

Showed HIMA Ilmu Komunikasi could pair entertainment with a cause: Rp1M donated and the message on stage all night.
