Participants who took part in the YUDECS Workshop came from active students and students of the Development Economics study program class of 2020 and 2021 as many as 34 teams with 102 participants and each team consisted of 3 people.

The series of YUDECS 2022 events does not end here, but there is still a continuation, namely participants making BMC (Business Model Canvas) and compiling business proposals. The high enthusiasm of the participants and the good running of the event certainly cannot be separated from several obstacles that arose during the event. However, this workshop did not have significant obstacles that hindered the course of the event. "The YUDECS 2022 event can be said to have gone smoothly, although there were technical problems but they could be overcome," said Gita when interviewed after the event.

 

By holding this event, it is hoped that it can be useful in improving student and student achievement, especially the Development Economics Study Program and hopefully it can be expanded further within the scope of faculties and universities. "Hopefully it can be useful and later the business proposals that are being worked on can penetrate to universities or other competitions because this is only a workshop," said I Made Oka Wirajaya as chairman of the 2022 Development Economics Student Association. "Hopefully this YUDECS event can develop better It's not only in the scope of the Development Economics study program, but maybe it can be expanded further to the scope of the Faculty and the University," said Gita in ending the interview.
