SIROM Sustainability Day 2025

In celebration of UN Environment Day, Soroptimist International Region of Malaysia (SIROM) together with  Heineken Malaysia, Sokong by Malaysiakini, hosted Sustainability Day 2025 at GCC Farm, Bentong. The event promoted eco-friendly practices through hands-on workshops on aquaponics farming and organic composting - practical, low-carbon solutions to food security and environmental challenges.

Aligned with the UN Environment Day theme “Our Land. Our Future. We Are #GenerationRestoration,” the initiative brought together community members, environmental advocates, and volunteers to inspire sustainable living.

Participants engaged in hands-on workshops, educational demonstrations, and community dialogues, making it a meaningful day of learning, collaboration, and action. This effort reflects the spirit of the 2025 UN Environment Day theme:

“Our Land. Our Future. We Are #GenerationRestoration.”

“Sustainability Day is about more than awareness—it’s about action,” said Rebecca Lai, President of SIROM. “Aquaponics and composting provide scalable, low-carbon impact solutions to food waste, water conservation, and urban farming challenges. These practices demonstrate how communities can take charge of their own sustainability.”
