THE PROBLEM


Speak Up, in short, SU is a social project started by AIESEC in Malaysia in January 2015. Being one of the three national projects organised by AIESEC in Malaysia, SU focused on the social issues of low English proficiency and STEM knowledge among students. The project’s planning involved university students in both public and private higher education institutions using a design framework created by AIESEC and our partner Teach for Malaysia (TFM). While the project execution involves youth volunteers recruited from all over the world.

Malaysian secondary school students have a poor command of English & lack of good communication abilities. Based on the National Education Blueprint 2013-2025 (Preschool to Post-Secondary Education), 3 out of 10 of secondary students achieved a minimum credit in their SPM English paper. At the same time, one of the most highlighted importance of raising the quality of education by the general public is communication skills among secondary students. This in accordance to the 4th Global Goal, thus the project is to empower underserved students in Malaysia to have a better future by developing their English proficiency & enhancing their personal development through workshops and consistent communication initiatives.

THE SOLUTION


By supporting this campaign, we can help to provide education and support services to help enhance the high schools students' English proficiency and built confidence in them in order to prepare them for the future career. 

For every donation made, it will be contributed to help aid the B40 community in giving them access to education. Therefore, the funds raised will be contributed to the help purchase laptops for some of the secondary school students. 

Join us in providing the refugees a better living condition – make a single or recurring donation to save lives.

THE IMPACT


Speak Up has been reached more than 800 Global Volunteers, 160 Secondary Schools and 2,200 Secondary Students. More than 83% of these stakeholders have ranked our project with a score of 8 out of 10, and more than 76% of the Secondary Students have ranked themselves more confident in using English for daily interaction with peers (7 out of 10), some of them even become the Committee of the Toastmaster Club which reveals that what Speak Up brings to them is not just about short-term change but a long-term impact.

About the Organization/Project behind this Campaign

AIESEC in Taylor's University


 

Our Identity

AIESEC is the world's largest non-profit youth-run organization. It is an international non-governmental not-for-profit organisation that provides young people with leadership development, cross-cultural global internships, and volunteer exchange experiences across the globe. The organization focuses on empowering young leaders to make a positive impact on society through actions.

Our Vision

AIESEC strives for Peace and Fulfilment of Humankind's Potential as an organisation. 

In today’s context, ‘Peace’ does not necessarily mean only avoiding war. Peace can symbolise a world that does not have conflicts that arise from cultural, religious, or other aspects of differences in humanity. Peace can also symbolise being in harmony with yourself. AIESEC strives to build a world where people can work towards their own understanding of peace while respecting and understanding the views of others.

Through Fulfilment of Humankind’s Potential, AIESEC strives for a world where people can be the best version of themselves.

Our Action

We place our confidence in youth because they have the passion, dynamism and entrepreneurial spirit that are needed to shape the future. They have the responsibility to improve tomorrow by choosing who they will be today. Hence, AIESEC is a platform for young leaders to run projects that are aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to ensure its relevance to the local community needs. We aim to be part of the solution for the betterment of Malaysia.
