In this fourth episode, OzAlum Muhammad Fathahillah Zuhri and PhD candidate Faruq Ibnul Haqi share with guest host alumna Desy Bachir about how student associations and alumni networks matter more than you think. An opportunity for students and alumni to better their professional and personal growth, Fathah manages to co-found a startup, Stepnesia, from his network, while Faruq receives funding from the Alumni Grant Scheme (AGS) for his project Bambooland, a social enterprise located at Ngepring village in Sleman.
