What started out on a small scale in 2019 has now grown bigger with several non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and groups collaborating and supporting
Ehsan Ramadhan (ER), a project under the initiative of Youth Against Slavery Brunei (YAS Brunei).
Established by a youth group spearheaded by Amal Kasibah binti Bahari and Norhayatunajibah binti Haji Kifli, YAS Brunei is an initiative under the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative’s ASEAN Youth Ending Slavery Project to raise awareness in fighting against modern slavery and human trafficking.
Amal Kasibah told the
Bulletin the project began as an idea to send donations to migrant workers around Bandar Seri Begawan (BSB) during Ramadhan in 2019 and was inspired by the generosity of the local community in giving alms at the mosques.

Reef Spawn: Broadcasting Marine Environmental Education in Malaysia and Beyond
The project is a youth capacity development program. Through four practitioner-led virtual sessions followed by a three-day, two-night hands-on bootcamp, Reef Spawn will equip 12 budding conservationists with the knowledge and skills necessary to contribute to the marine environment in Malaysia.
The 12 selected participants will be expected to broadcast the lessons learned and empower other youths in their communities to champion the marine environment.
Aside from students in marine biology or environmental science, we hope to encourage more youths from a non-science background to apply. The marine environment is threatened today more than ever before so until we get everyone involved, there can be no progress.
