Empowering the Next Generation: ‘From Antarctica to Classroom’

Bringing climate action directly to our youth! Last September, our team from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) through the Faculty of Built Environment and Surveying (FABU), under the auspices of YPASM, successfully organized the ‘From Antarctica to Classroom’ outreach program at SMK Pulai Jaya.

The event kicked off with an insightful sharing session on Antarctic science and climate realities by Dr Suzanna Azmy, setting the stage for an energetic 10-checkpoint “Climate Literacy” Explorace. Over 100 Form 1 students actively tackled hands-on environmental challenges designed to inspire real-world sustainability solutions. The impactful day concluded with a memorable closing and prize-giving ceremony officiated by the Dean of FABU, Prof. Sr. Dr. Kherun Nita binti Ali.

A special shoutout and huge appreciation to our Program Chair, Dr. Norhidayah Binti Md. Yunus, for her outstanding leadership in driving this initiative from vision to reality! Heartfelt thanks as well to our strategic partners—SWM Environment, MBIP, PPD Kulai, and SMK Pulai Jaya—for making this event a resounding success.
