Do you know about Malaysia's Climate Change Bill (RUUPIN) ? KAMY wrote three RUUPIN Feedback Submissions for the government, in collaboration with various stakeholders and diverse perspectives. (1) General submission (2) Women’s Rights (3) Children and Youth’s Rights Read them here > Learn more about RUUPIN here > Download resources about RUUPIN here > Our Principles & approach Rights-based & gender responsive Every climate policy, every energy transition, every adaptation plan must protect human rights and address how climate change affects people differently based on gender, class, and identity. We integrate feminist analysis into all our advocacy, ensuring no one is left behind in Malaysia's climate response. Decolonising climate discourse We challenge the dominance of Global North narratives in climate conversations. Through community-centered research, grassroots storytelling, and Indigenous knowledge systems, we amplify local voices and solutions rooted in Malaysian realities. Bridging complex to accessible Climate policy shouldn't be locked away in technical jargon. We translate complex legal frameworks, energy systems, and international negotiations into accessible information that empowers communities to engage meaningfully in decisions affecting their lives. Coalition building across movements Climate justice intersects with every struggle for equity. We build alliances across women's rights, Indigenous sovereignty, food sovereignty, labor rights, and environmental movements - recognising that our fights are interconnected and our solutions must be too. Data-driven & grounded on lived realities Our advocacy combines research with lived experiences from the ground. We fill critical data gaps while ensuring community voices and stories remain at the center of our policy work. OUR Focus areas Just Energy Transition (JET) Our JET work encompasses: Research & Policy Development Through our JETBHR research , we produced Malaysia's first comprehensive analysis applying Business and Human Rights principles to energy transition, offering concrete policy recommendations for state and corporate actors. Contributed human rights and community engagement perspectives to Malaysia's Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) in developing the National Renewable Energy Policy Document and Action Plan (Phase 2), helping shape the country's renewable energy framework and implementation strategy. Asia Feminist Coalition We are a founding member of the Asia Feminist Coalition, launched in 2022 with Oxfam International and partners across the region. In 2023, we co-authored the regional policy brief “Towards a Feminist Just Energy Transition in Asia.” As part of Malaysia’s 2025 ASEAN chairmanship, we’re co-organised a regional dialogue with AFC and our regional partners on gender and just energy transition (JET–GENDER) , and coordinated conversations on the labour impacts of energy transition—especially on women and workers. Media & Comms Since 2022, our Lensa Iklim programme has been crucial in building climate journalism capacity, training 50+ journalists and producing investigative features on energy transition issues from hydropower impacts to solar waste management . Business & Human Rights (BHR) NAPBHR (National Action Plan on Business and Human Rights) As the lead for the Environment chapter in Malaysia’s Baseline Assessment on Business and Human Rights (NAPBHR), we identified critical policy gaps in corporate environmental accountability. We continue to advocate for the constitutional right to a clean and healthy environment, alongside the enactment of a Climate Change Act with binding targets. Our work advances corporate accountability frameworks that ensure businesses respect, protect, and remedy both environmental and human rights. Read More JET-BHR JET-BHR In Peninsular Malaysia - Towards a Just Energy Transition with Business and Human Rights Principles In February 2025, we published “JET-BHR in Peninsular Malaysia” —a first-of-its-kind report examining Malaysia’s energy transition through a Business and Human Rights (BHR) lens. The report documents how energy transitions affect workers, Indigenous peoples, women, and other vulnerable communities. It outlines key barriers and opportunities for a rights-based approach, and provides policy recommendations for duty bearers—grounded in the BHR principles of protect, respect, and remedy. Read More Gender & Women CEDAW Process We led Malaysia’s first comprehensive gender-climate submission to the CEDAW Committee, marking a major step in feminist climate advocacy. Our official written report, “Women & Climate Crisis in Peninsula Malaysia” (April 2024), detailed the gendered impacts of climate disasters, care burdens, energy poverty, and policy gaps in Malaysia’s climate response. As a result, we secured substantive recommendations on climate change and just energy transition in the CEDAW Concluding Observations—creating binding obligations for the Malaysian government. Gender Budget Group As part of Malaysia’s Gender Budget Group (GBG), we contributed climate justice perspectives to national budget advocacy in 2024. At the Gender Lens on Budget 2025 roundtable , we highlighted the disproportionate climate impacts on women and called for a national baseline on gendered climate risks and stronger climate-environment SDG tagging. We also engaged Members of Parliament to promote gender-responsive budgeting frameworks that integrate care work, climate resilience, and inclusive energy transition. Our work supports ongoing efforts to institutionalise gender-responsive approaches in climate finance governance. Legal Empowerment Malaysia's Climate Change Bill (RUUPIN) Advocacy We led extensive advocacy on Malaysia’s upcoming Climate Change Bill (RUUPIN) , utilising a rights-based and inclusive approach. Through urgent public outreach, we engaged a wide range of civil society groups—including women’s rights organisations, youth networks, Indigenous advocates, and persons with disabilities—to provide substantive feedback on the bill draft. To strengthen public participation, we developed accessible climate communication tools in both English and Bahasa Melayu , including one-pagers and explainer videos—ensuring more people could engage with policy processes that shape their future. Universal Periodic Review (UPR) Process We have been actively engaged in Malaysia’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR) process since early 2023, working through the COMANGO coalition. KAMY contributed to the Joint NGO Report submitted in July 2023 , ensuring the inclusion of critical perspectives on environmental rights, just energy transition, and gender-climate intersections. As a result, Malaysia’s UPR in January 2024 saw the adoption of landmark recommendations—calling for gender-responsive climate policies, stronger environmental governance, and the protection of vulnerable groups in the face of climate impacts. Indigenous Peoples Weaving Hopes for the Future Launched in 2021, this Indigenous-led initiative amplifies the voices of Peninsular Malaysia’s Orang Asli especially young women- through art, film, and cultural storytelling. From highlighting the issue of Loss and Damage at COP26 to producing a community report on the Jakun people in Pahang presented at COP27 and COP28, the programme centers Indigenous knowledge in climate discourse. Read More Sekolah Iklim A report that elevates the role of Orang Asli youth in climate governance. It documents the impact of logging, monocrop plantations, mining, and weak disaster response on Indigenous communities. The report calls for urgent reforms to protect Indigenous land and cultural rights, in alignment with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and SUHAKAM’s national recommendations. Read More Climate Communications Lensa Iklim Our flagship climate journalism programme (2022-2025) strengthens Malaysia's media capacity to report on climate change and energy transition with depth and accuracy. We've trained 50+ journalists and editors across Malaysia , equipping them with the skills to cover complex climate issues. Through structured mentorship, we've supported the production of 10+ original investigative stories spotlighting climate change, energy transition, and environmental justice. In February 2023, we published "Climate And Energy Transition Reporting In Peninsular Malaysia's Mainstream News Media" . This research conducted systematic content analysis, identifying coverage gaps and providing a roadmap for improved climate communication strategies. Through ongoing curriculum development and mentorship support, Lensa Iklim is building a generation of climate-literate journalists who can translate complex climate science and policy into accessible public discourse, fundamentally improving how Malaysians understand and engage with climate issues.

APAKAH PERUBAHAN IKLIM? Iklim bumi sentiasa berubah sepanjang sejarah evolusi bumi. Perubahan yang perlahan dan beransur-ansur ini dipengaruhi oleh pelbagai faktor. Antaranya ialah kitaran orbit bumi atau ‘Kitaran Melankovich’ dan pergerakan plat tektonik. Proses proses ini menjadikan bumi ini satu planet mampu dihuni oleh pelbagai spesies dan diversiti. Perubahan iklim semula jadi juga telah membentuk perjalanan evolusi dan migrasi hominin (manusia awal seperti Homo Erectus dan juga manusia moden Homo Sapiens ) Walau bagaimanapun, pertumbuhan manusia dan perindustrian yang pesat telah mengubah proses semulajadi perubahan iklim dengan kadar kelajuan yang amat berbahaya. Emisi karbon dioksida (CO2), sejenis gas rumah hijau telah terbebas ke atmosfera pada kadar berbahaya yang memanaskan Bumi dengan ketara. Gaya hidup manusia yang tidak mampan dalam sistem ekonomi berat sebelah yang mementingkan keuntungan korporasi korporasi gergasi, telah menyebabkan konsentrasi CO2 dalam atmosfera meningkat sebanyak 40% sejak revolusi perindustrian dan dijangka bertambah buruk dalam beberapa dekad akan datang. Beberapa minggu lepas, konsentrasi CO2 di atmosfera telah melebihi 400 ppm, satu situasi yang tidak pernah di lihat dalam sejarah manusia moden. IMPAK KEPADA MALAYSIA Kenaikan suhu global! Kenaikan suhu 1.5 °C dan ke atas akan membawa kepada pemanasan laut, pencairan glasier, kenaikan paras laut dan iklim yang melampau dan tidak menentu. Di Malaysia, kesan perubahan iklim yang mula dirasai adalah haba melampau dalam bentuk gelombang panas. Ini meningkatkan risiko kesihatan yang berkait dengan haba, polusi dan kematian. Kepanasan berterusan bakal menyaksikan kemusnahan biodiversity seperti kematian terumbu karang yang merupakan ‘keystone’ habitat untuk hidupan marin, yang merupakan sumber makanan rakyat. Di darat, kehilangan hutan dara, modifikasi sistem penggunaan tanah dan urbanisasi yang tidak mampan juga menaikkan lagi suhu lokal seperti yang dilihat di Borneo yang kehilangan 50% dari hutan daranya. Selain itu, pencairan glasier dan litupan ais adalah penyumbang utama kepada kenaikan paras laut, menyebabkan masyarakat di kawasan pesisiran laut berisiko dinaiki air. Kehilangan penempatan manusia dalam kawasan ini bukan sahaja akan membawa kepada kadar penghijrahan bandar yang lebih tinggi, tetapi ia juga akan meluaskan jurang sosio ekonomi bagi warga yang hidup dalam garis kemiskinan sama ada komuniti marginal, wanita atau kanak-kanak. Golongan terpinggir ini adalah golongan yang paling terdedah kepada perubahan iklim, namun paling kurang bersedia untuk menghadapi risiko perubahan iklim. Musim kering yang berpanjangan juga boleh mengkompromi keselamatan makanan negara akibat tanaman makanan yang musnah disebabkan kepanasan extrem dan masalah irigasi. Sekiranya isu ini terus diambil ringan, bukan sahaja petani mengalami kehilangan mata pencarian, malah produktiviti ekonomi negara juga akan terjejas.

Climate Emergency 2022 On the cusp of the new decade, we would like to wish everyone a blessed new year and thank you for your endless support for the climate movement. The new decade sends a signal that we have more or less ten years before the temperature hikes up to more than 1.5 degrees Celcius. This will throw the natural systems out of balance, and as creatures that rely so much on nature – this posed an existential threat for humanity itself. With the way we are consuming things right now, without any regards to the environment, we are denying the rights of future generation to a habitable planet. And, for some community, that future is now. For example, this region is choking from a yearly haze crisis during the heatwaves, where the sky turned red in many areas, millions of people are smoking poison, schools closing for long periods of time etc – the haze is a public health nightmare as well as releasing gigatonnes of CO2 into the atmosphere. In the north – Myanmar and the Philippines, extreme weather patterns have caused frequent and stronger cyclones, leaving a trail of death and destruction. Sea levels are rising, and as more natural barriers like the mangroves are disappearing, more coastal cities will be hit hard and submerged in the next few decades. The magnitude of the tropical rainforest loss has not only led to a biodiversity crisis but also the degradation of water catchment that we heavily relied on. As resources wane, people will panic, hate, and blame. And this, will be a normal setting for our future, and perhaps even much worse. Our world is degrading fast into a state where it is not habitable anymore. Everyone will bear the implications -- you, your family, your friends, and your community. For some, the crisis has already hit them, risking food and water securities that have led to social unrest. This is the tipping point, if we fail to act now, our generation will be the first to perish because of climate change. In 2019, we have seen a surge of people from various backgrounds, young and old, stood together amid the climate crisis. Inside this crisis, incredible groups of young people have emerged with an amazing level of passion and creativity, and novel ways to organize and collaborate. The young, despite carrying the heavy burden and consequences of inaction by the corrupt and broken system, have shown resilience, strength, unity, survival and most important of all: HOPE. For the past one-year, young people globally have taken the lead for a social change – asking for a better future, pushing for a JUST climate policy where all voices are heard, and even designing for technological solutions. Gone were the days where only people in science can talk about the climate crisis. The young people today are a new breed of climate and environmental activists, constantly rethinking novel ways to empower the people to bring about the system and social change needed to heal this world. When KAMY started in early March 2019, we aim to bridge the gap existing between environmental and human rights causes in Malaysia to establish that these two causes intersect and are evermore connected in the future. One of the common responses we have gotten is that the issue of the climate crisis is too complex and abstract that these groups simply felt overwhelmed by the magnitude of its impacts. We realized that emulating climate campaigns from the Northern states, especially from developed nations, will fail to work in Malaysia given the different socio-economic and geographic scales, and climate literacy levels. The climate movement also faces a monumental challenge to maintain momentum. As a small and new group, which is run mostly by university students and young professionals, we have to select issues that we can work best with our current capacity. KAMY will focus on two main campaigns in 2020; CLIMATE STRIKES and ADVOCACY. Our work is utilized by a wide cross-sector of the community including the media, frontline communities, schools and universities, environmental and human rights NGOs, health organizations, government bodies, and individuals.

CLIMATE STRIKES JEREBU IPCC TALK SERIES CLIMATE WORKSHOP CLIMATE CIRCLE (CC) OPS DARURAT IKLIM CLIMATE REPORT CARD KAMY's ethos is putting people at the center of climate action. Community empowerment can ensure that inclusive policymaking translates to meaningful implementation and regulation, and thus ensuring impactful and meaningful action By using a range of strategies such as producing reports, visual items, media work, community events, strategic projects, and prolific social media output, we can engage with a wide cross-section of the Malaysian public.
