After the flashmob, the students from Linkoping University held a Torch Parade to walk with a burning torch from Linkoping Cathedral to Stora Torget where Musikhjalpen is taking place to celebrate their victory in meeting the goals of raising funds for Musikhjalpen.

Linkoping University !

Linköping University ( LiU) is a state university in Linköping, Sweden. Linköping University was granted full university status in 1975 and is now one of Sweden's larger academic institutions. Education, research and PhD training are the mission of four faculties: Arts and Sciences, Educational Sciences, Medicine and Health Sciences and the Institute of Technology.

Although I am holding on a student ID issued by LiU, I didn't really come to study in the university XD .

Musikhjalpen !

Musikhjälpen (Music Aid) is the Swedish version of the Dutch Serious Request radio/television campaign. The show is an appeal for money which each year helps a certain cause. Three radio or/and television personalities are locked inside a glass house for 144 hours and they broadcast live on Swedish public service radio network Sveriges Radio and on public services television through SVT. People send text messages requesting a song, with each text costing 50, 100 or 200 Swedish kronor.

(hosts for 2015 : Kodjo Akolor, gina dirawi and Linnea Henriksson)

Musikhjälpen 2015 - "Nobody should have to escape the climate"

Music Aid was sent in 2015 for the first time from the main square of Linköping, between 13 and 19 December. The theme for this year was "No one should escape climate" with a focus on climate-related disasters that forced millions of people to flee.

During the week registered 268 000 commitment and total was 31,105,000 kronor in which was a new record.
