Cultivating an inclusive community of innovators to help address our biggest social and environmental challenges
Social innovation is by all. For all. For good.
At MaGIC, we aim to be the Social Innovation Hub in Malaysia and the region by cultivating and nurturing an inclusive community of innovators to address social and environmental concerns. We believe in innovative business models, use of technology, and entrepreneurship to create sustainable and impactful change.
Climate change has led to extreme weather events affecting our natural ecosystem, impacting our wellbeings and future generations.
It is vital to protect the environment through the decarbonisation of energy systems, reduction in industrial pollution and the conservation of land and biodiversity.
With rapid population growth, land and water scarcity, as well as exploitative food systems, access to sufficient and safe food supply is not a concession for the privileged.
It is key to provide food for all using inclusive strategies to make food systems efficient, resilient and reliable for people - from food production to supply chain management.
In a fast-paced and evolving world, our society is faced with ever changing social struggles and diseases.
In the pursuit of universal healthcare for social wellbeing, it is imperative to support health systems for primary care, disease control and changes to social norms and behaviours - to promote healthier lifestyles and mental health.
Livelihood challenges and income inequality have led to limited access to education, skills and decent jobs to provide for the family and grow the community as a whole.
Nation building starts from home. The provision of quality education, skill-based training and income opportunities is crucial to community livelihoods. It tackles poverty, gender inequality and focuses on shared growth for national prosperity.
Modernisation can lead to an irreversible lost of our precious culture and heritage.
Historical heritage provides a sense of identity and continuity in a globalised world. As a nation of diversity, it is everyone’s duty to protect the invaluable inheritance and practices, the multitude of cultures, as well as the arts and traditions of the people.
Through our programmes, we provide tools and knowlege to social innovators to scale their solutions. The key is to foster an impact-driven innovation environment.
A matching grant totalling RM10 million for organisations who can crowdsource contributions and donations to undertake social or environmental projects.
Capturing opportunities to encourage & support everyone in the community such as corporates, academic institutions, non-profits, government, and the general public to become social innovators.
