Achievement: PE and sport delivered well is proven to impact positively on attainment and academic achievement.

Refugees must be seen as an essential part of our shared humanity. Today more than 65 million people have fled their homes seeking safety wherever they can find it - nearby communities, neighbouring countries and often new continents. The global response has been a band-aid solution to a humanitarian crisis that needs long term, sustainable solutions. In countries like Malaysia, where refugees are denied legal status, offered few protections and faced with restrictions on education, work and the perpetual fear of arrest; both their lives and their plight remain in the shadows. We're here to change that. Our vision is of a single, shared humanity, where social inclusion is about dignity and choice, not dependence, not charity. Payong Organisation (which is fully supported by Liberty to Learn Berhad) champions 'Equitable Outcomes' for all refugees living in Malaysia. By championing we support refugee initiatives, leverage partnerships, increase advocacy and work towards creating and funding solutions to bring about systemic changes in the education, health and livelihoods sectors for refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia. With an outcome that all refugees will be able to build meaningful, purpose-driven and successful lives for themselves. Because refugees are in transit in Malaysia, while waiting for resettlement we believe it is critical that we work with and support them to becoming 'transition ready'. Resettlement or repatriation can happen at any point, so all programmes aim to equip them with hard skills/soft skills and tools so that they can navigate their lives during/after transition. Essentially setting them up for success.
