The Young Environmentalist Camp program is organized in line with the Malaysian Education Development Plan (PPPM) 2013-2025 where one of the main criteria is to improve the quality of the curriculum especially Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Education.
This program focuses on education in a fun activity-based teaching and learning environment to attract students' interest in producing more young generations who are skilled in the field of science and technology.
Apart from that, this program is expected to bring students at the primary school level closer to environmental education where each activity that is carried out introduces students to types of pollution such as solid waste pollution, noise pollution, and water pollution in addition to showing methods of nature conservation environment done by environmental engineers.
Every activity organized is expected to prepare the new generation to bravely face future challenges, resolve conflicts peacefully, make appropriate decisions in critical situations, and have the courage to do what is right.
Young Environmentalist Camp is successfully organized in four consecutive years starting from 2018 until 2022 exclude 2021 due to COVID-19 and control movement order enforced by the government. The Young Environmentalist Camp program was attended by approximately 250 participants from the northern zone covering Perlis, Kedah and Penang.
