About Malaysia, JomPACT!
About the initiative
What Is Malaysia, JomPACT!
Malaysia, JomPACT! is an initiative that puts you in the driver's seat to tackle single-use plastic waste. PACT stands for Plastic Actions, and that is exactly what we are building.
Led by WWF-Malaysia and funded by Yayasan Hasanah, we are empowering youth in Malaysia to design, test, and scale real solutions that cut down problematic and unnecessary single-use plastics (PUSUPs) in your communities - from mamaks and campus canteens to markets and public spaces.
Here is what makes this initiative different: we are not just raising your awareness through Masterclass. We are building your skills, your leadership, and creating systems-level change that lasts. You will work alongside local councils and government agencies to turn ideas into action and prove that youth-led solutions work.

Our Purpose
Why Malaysia Needs JomPACT!
The Challenge
According to WWF-Malaysia published in 2020, Malaysia generates over 1 million tonnes of post-consumer plastic waste - 1,070,064 tonnes, to be precise (WWF-Malaysia, 2020). The single-use plastic products around us? They outlive us by centuries. The truth is, we can't recycle our way out of this. We need to stop the flood at the source - and that starts with the people using it every day.
The Changemakers
Young Malaysians are already concerned. You see the problem. You want change. Malaysia, JomPACT! exists to turn that frustration into power, giving you the evidence, mentorship, and connections with local authorities to actually redesign how your community uses plastic.
The Future
Because shifting mindsets and policies is not just possible. You are going to prove it works.

Advocacy Meets Youth Action:
Plastic Policy Law Lab
As you progress through Malaysia, JomPACT! Masterclasses, WWF-Malaysia's Plastic Policy Law Lab runs in parallel - conducting a readiness and needs assessment to understand Malaysia's capacity to address single-use plastics. By the time you reach Co-Design in February - March 2026, this research will inform your work with key stakeholders. And by the time you complete your Eco Champion Awards projects, your on-the-ground insights will feed into national policy recommendations.
