Description:
Food insecurity in Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, had reached an alarming state. The increasing living costs and the vulnerable population had brought concerns to all Malaysians, especially those from low-income households. To ensure Malaysia has full access to safe, nutritious, and delicious food, Cultiveat has come a long way to produce non-pesticide food. They are one of the first sustainable farming company in Malaysia.
By having such a great opportunity to work with Cultiveat, Agri-Tech Youth Entrepreneurship was designed as an incubation learning school to increase the interaction of youth in sustainable farming. By providing an active space, it encourages youth to get inspired by each other through engagement.
