YSEALI Bootcamp 2022
YSEALI Boot Camp 2022, led by Biji-Biji and supported by US Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, aims to empower talented youths (18 to 35 years old) from all over Malaysia to spark fresh ideas and drive innovation through civic engagement.
Starting in November 2022, a series of 2-day Boot Camps held to provide participants with the skills, tools, and knowledge necessary to initiate their civic engagement campaigns. The Boot Camps will culminate in a round of pitches, where participants can compete for seed grants to implement their campaigns. Eight winning teams will receive funding worth RM 4,500 each, along with three months of mentorship to execute their campaigns. These winning teams will then showcase their progress at a physical finale for YSEALI Boot Camp 2022, scheduled tentatively for August 2023 in Kuala Lumpur.
