DesignX

13th February, 2021


"DesignX" was an online webinar series which was conducted as three separate sessions with the main target of developing the digital designing software skills of the participants. At a time where everybody is spending most of their time roaming on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, why not give them a chance to learn something new or sharpen their skills? That’s how our always-busy PR Team came up with this fantastic idea.

The project was not carried out alone. We partnered up with the Media Society of University of Peradeniya, Perabeats for this great project. Nowadays, everybody is very eager to learn Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Premiere Pro. Therefore, the project was carried out to introduce the concepts of these 3 in an understandable manner.

The main objective of the project is making the University of Peradeniya a COVID Controlled Environment and resuming the academic activities even at the time of the pandemic.

This massive project consists of 7 phases and is still on going.

Phase 1: On-Campus Awareness Workshop

After discussing extensively with the university administration, health center and other relevant personnel, we decided to hold an awareness workshop to educate the university community about the new protocols in place, health guidelines that must be followed when the university started and to get their insight about the pandemic situation and new initiations in place. Students and staff members representing each year of every faculty participated for this workshop. A volunteer group consisting of students and staff members was formed to monitor whether the proper health guidelines are followed by everyone.

Phase 2: Banner Campaign

At a time the whole community is facing a virus which has no cure, the only way to protect ourselves is to arm ourselves with the proper knowledge. This is why, we as a club decided to display the proper the health guidelines all around the university. 100 banners were displayed at specific places demonstrating the relevant guidelines.

Phase 3: Online Awareness Campaign

Phase 4: Donation of washbasins

Phase 5: "Wear a Mask" Challenge

COVID Free Pera

10th of June, 2020


The project COVID Free Pera has been happening for over 6 months in the University of Peradeniya, which houses 12, 000 students. The project managed to turn the university premises which spans over 700 hectares into a COVID controlled environment. The project grew from humble beginnings to an expansive project which contributed in many ways towards Dr. Rohantha's brainchild: the Stop The Spread Initiative. Having started as a part of Rotary's Stop The Spread Initiative in order to further the Rotary vision of a lively society under the new normal, the project soon became the model project to test the initiatives.
