OBJECTIVE:

Bringing together Orang Asli participants from MEGA and students from Singaporean International School, Stay Afloat: Navigating Climate Change was a workshop held on 2 May 2026. Organized by Youth Beyond Boundaries (YBB) as part of the Culture Connect Project 2026 by the Patatas, the programme aimed to foster cross-cultural learning and environmental awareness through interactive engagement, with support from UCSI University.

Guided by invited speaker Ms. Lyvia (Wander Wild), participants explored real-world climate scenarios through an interactive simulation game. They experienced how different decisions impact environmental and community outcomes in real time, encouraging critical thinking, collaboration, and awareness of climate-related challenges.

The workshop highlighted the importance of collective action and informed decision-making in addressing climate change, while strengthening teamwork and understanding between diverse participant groups. It served as a meaningful platform to inspire sustainable thinking and shared responsibility towards a more resilient future.
