Suara Masyarakat (Community Voices)
The 36-month, EU-funded ‘Suara Masyarakat’ media development program by Internews in Malaysia where we focused on capacity building for the Malaysian media, amplified marginalised voices and promoted good governance and accountability.
Specialised Knowledge
Our approach is grounded in interdisciplinary thinking and a commitment to knowledge sharing. We bring a wealth of experience to the table, helping clients tackle complex challenges that sit at the intersection of environmental conservation, media development, and ocean science.
