Our world faces complex challenges such as poverty and inequality, becoming a refugee or a stateless person and environmental degradation. These concerns also impact large sections of Malaysian society. These concerns and issues are deeply interconnected, requiring multifaceted solutions which build on the resilience of individual and communities in addressing the systemic and structural concerns.
We believe that true progress hinges on empowering individuals and communities to become active participants in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We envision a future where communities are not just recipients of aid, but champions driving positive change and shaping a more sustainable and equitable future.
