Driving Climate Action and Innovation: The Better is Possible Design Challenge Workshop
In a concerted effort to address the pressing issues of climate action, the “Better is Possible Design Challenge Workshop” emerged as a beacon of innovation and collective action. This workshop, organized by Steelcase, saw the active involvement of The Changemakers. Their combined mission was clear: to drive positive change in the realm of environmental conservation. The heart of the challenge revolved around the ever-evolving landscape of environmental changes in Malaysia. This workshop went beyond the traditional rhetoric, delving deep into problem-solving for issues impacting local communities. Participants engaged in intense brainstorming sessions, striving to find innovative solutions to prevailing challenges.
One remarkable facet of this endeavor was the participation of the Pulau Banding Foundation, an organization dedicated to the preservation of Belum-Temengor’s rainforests. Their involvement was no coincidence; the foundation firmly believes that the rainforest is a pivotal resource in the fight for climate action. With a shared commitment to the cause, Pulau Banding Foundation brought unique perspectives and ideas to the table. Zulfadhlan, a dedicated member of Pulau Banding Foundation, offered a novel idea during the challenge. He proposed the creation of a mobile game aimed at raising awareness about climate action issues within society. This ingenious approach not only instilled a sense of responsibility but also garnered support from the participants.
Before the workshop, many participants had limited awareness of the critical role played by rainforests, especially those in Peninsular Malaysia. The challenge served as an eye-opener, fostering a greater understanding of the importance of conserving nature and maintaining a healthy environment. Participants engaged with the diverse flora and fauna of Malaysia, enriching their knowledge and enhancing their commitment to environmental conservation. The “Better is Possible Design Challenge Workshop” left participants with a transformed perspective on climate action. It underscored the significance of their individual contributions to preserving the environment and maintaining a sustainable future. The takeaway was clear: small actions bring BIG differences.
In conclusion, this collaborative effort, facilitated by Steelcase and driven by The Changemakers, in partnership with organizations like the Pulau Banding Foundation, demonstrates that by working together, we can create positive and lasting change. The challenge exemplified that when it comes to climate action, the mantra “Better is Possible” is not just a statement; it’s a call to action. It’s a reminder that, indeed, better is not only possible but necessary for a sustainable future.
