WHAT DO WE DO?
UNDIMSIA! is the first-of-its-kind civic education programme in Malaysia, aimed at strengthening the ownership, participation and representation of youths on their right to vote and civic responsibility.
Its goal is for youths to develop critical thinking and solve issues affecting them through effective forms of activism. Projects under UndiMsia! are designed based on four pillars; information, process, action and platform for a coalition of civil society.
