“Where

experience”
 About us
IDEAS ACADEMY Sdn Bhd is a joint venture between
IDEAS (Institute for Democracy and Economic Affairs),
Malaysia,

IDEAS Academy believes in education for all
Education holds the key to global citizenship,
which is something that no one- regardless of
background, race or economic situation-should be
denied

Every child between 12 and 18 years old should

gain a strong secondary educational foundation to
become a responsible, compassionate and
confident citizen of tomorrow.
IDEAS Academy: The Learning
Centre
For underprivileged youths in Malaysia - including
stateless, refugee and undocumented children. We
teach 150 students now but we want to grow to 300
students.

endorsed by
Education in Malaysia
Refugee and stateless children in Malaysia are not
allowed to enrol into government schools. But they
don’t have enough money to pay for expensive private
schools either.

The majority of the learning centres are at primary level.

There are only a few secondary level centres for refugee
and stateless children.
