Cakap’s 2020 Social Impact Report

After Indonesia National Education Day,the pioneer of online learning applications,Cakap,released its "Social Impact Report 2020" on May 3,2021. The report highlights how Cakap utilized information technology as a platform that provides leading-edge learning solutions,which has ultimately provided access to quality education without requiring them to visit educational institutions in general.

"Based on our strong belief that access to quality education is a life-changer,Cakap is here to leverage sophisticated technology that is simple and flexible to promote the improvement of quality human resources. We are not only targeting students but also education stakeholders,so that together we can build our own quality for the benefit of the nation in the future," said Tomy Yunus,Co-founder and CEO of Cakap.

Tomy also stated,"For us,2020 was a year of learning and transition,as well as the moment when Cakap participates in supporting the government's efforts to continue to provide effective education to students,even if it's not face-to-face." The fact that 94% of students have lost access to education in schools due to the pandemic,makes the EduTech learning system as the most logical alternative solution for educational institutions to adapt.

Not only because of the pandemic,but also because of Indonesia's population spread over 17,400 islands,making it difficult to balance and provide equal access to quality education. The readiness of Cakap facilities as one of the EduTech service providers has made Cakap a bridge connecting students and teachers from more than 95 cities,in 34 provinces.

According to the report,by 2020,Cakap has assisted in the empowerment of over 600 professional teachers from all over Indonesia,allowing these teachers to maintain a stable income and feel comfortable teaching because they can teach from anywhere where they can meet students who are more than 5,000 kilometers away. Cakap also developed partnership programs with more than 188 corporations,foundations,and government institutions to provide access to quality education in underdeveloped villages throughout the archipelago,such as Toba,Sumba,Lombok,Halmahera,and Sorong.

In terms of improving education,here are some points that can be highlighted at Cakap Social Impact Report during the year of 2020 journey.

Cakap have conducted more than 500,000 classes sessions throughout the year,
