THE PROBLEM

  1. The Malaysian secondary school students have a poor command of English & lack of good communication abilities. Based on the National Education Blueprint 2013-2025 (Preschool to Post-Secondary Education), 30% of secondary students achieved a minimum credit in their SPM English paper. One of the most highlighted importance of raising the quality of education by the general public is communication skills among secondary students.

 

  1. Most technical problems can be solved with the application of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). In Malaysia, it sees a steady drop in student enrolment in Science streams. The number of Form 5 students studying Science subjects has dropped an average of 6,000 per year since 2012, and in 2018 year’s enrolment stood at only 167,962 out of 375,794 (44.7%).

About the Organization/Project behind this Campaign

AIESEC in UKM

Our Identity

AIESEC is the world's largest non-profit youth-run organization. It is an international non-governmental not-for-profit organisation that provides young people with leadership development, cross-cultural global internships, and volunteer exchange experiences across the globe. The organization focuses on empowering young leaders to make a positive impact on society through actions.

Our Vision

AIESEC strives for Peace and Fulfilment of Humankind's Potential as an organisation. 

In today’s context, ‘Peace’ does not necessarily mean only avoiding war. Peace can symbolise a world that does not have conflicts that arise from cultural, religious, or other aspects of differences in humanity. Peace can also symbolise being in harmony with yourself. AIESEC strives to build a world where people can work towards their own understanding of peace while respecting and understanding the views of others.

Through Fulfilment of Humankind’s Potential, AIESEC strives for a world where people can be the best version of themselves.

Our Action

We place our confidence in youth because they have the passion, dynamism and entrepreneurial spirit that are needed to shape the future. They have the responsibility to improve tomorrow by choosing who they will be today. Hence, AIESEC is a platform for young leaders to run projects that are aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure its relevance to the local community needs. We aim to be part of the solution for a betterment of Malaysia.
