LOTUSS Stores (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd (Lotus’s Malaysia), Malaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology (MJIIT) and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) on July 27 announced the top five teams and the winning team of the 2nd National Sustainability Innovation Challenge (NaSIC’24). This year, the finalists have shared innovative ideas to help overcome a great challenge that Malaysia faces today, a mounting waste problem.
NaSIC’24 is designed to inspire students aged 16 to 19 to develop sustainable solutions that will change the current landscape of waste generation in the country, from complementing current waste management efforts in Lotus’s to engaging consumers and foster collaboration across the retail supply chain. The challenge also aims to integrate sustainability into all aspects of learning, increase interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and enhance problem-solving, critical thinking and collaboration skills.
