Participants played an important role in the festival, completing several main events to commemorate Indonesia's Independence. The flag ceremony, which took place on the second day of the festival, was one of the highlights of the celebration and was attended by children, parents, and Suku Anak Dalam's community leaders. The flag ceremony symbolized the unity and spirit of struggle that is still present in the community today. It reflected feelings and thoughts of patriotism in the hearts and minds of community members and instilled memories of the sacrifices made by previous generations so that Indonesia could be independent.

The festival also included a series of Independence Day Competitions that made the 79th Independence Day particularly memorable for members of the Suku Anak Dalam community. The competitions were included to strengthen the connection between members of the community. Each of the competitions required teamwork and offered entertainment to those participating and to everyone watching as well. Important values like sportsmanship and cooperation were taught to younger participants through these competitive events. Events included sack races, cracker-eating contests, tug-of-war, and other similar competitive activities.

The final main event of the festival was the Carnival/Parade. The theme of the carnival was the "Spirit of National Heroes' Struggle". Participants wore costumes and traditional clothing that reflected the culture of the Suku Anak Dalam community which were combined with elements that fit the theme of overcoming the national struggle for independence. The carnival showcased the culture while highlighting the sacrifices made by some of Indonesia's most significant heroes. The carnival involved the youth who participated via art and cultural performances. Youth communities in Jambi participated and the local government whole-heartedly supported the event. Ultimately, participants were left with feelings of pride for their community and their country, and lessons were taught by the older generations to the younger ones.

#### About Sobat Eksplorasi Anak Dalam (SEAD) Jambi and Suku Anak Dalam (SAD)

Sobat Eksplorasi Anak Dalam (SEAD) Jambi is a Non-Profit Organization engaging with educational inequality and social issues. The main goal of this organization is to eradicate the illiteracy of the Anak Dalam Tribe (SAD).  SAD is one of the oldest ethnic minorities in Indonesia. They live and make a living relying on the wealth of the forest with very strong customs. Unfortunately, at this time, their lives are starting to be disturbed, and they are experiencing various difficulties due to the development of modernization, which has taken away their forest rights. Therefore, literacy education is one of the basic keys they must have to protect themselves from being exploited. Besides, this organization is also a forum for Jambi's youth (volunteers) willing to help locals contribute to their regions and raise awareness of the intended issues. The significant impact achieved has not only eradicated SAD illiteracy, but we have also opened access to formal and informal education for them.
