Our mission at Greenpeace is to protect the natural world from destruction — because a green, peaceful future is not only possible, it’s essential.

In Malaysia, that means confronting environmental threats that endanger our forests, oceans, air, water, and climate. We campaign to stop the root causes of destruction, drive systemic change, and protect the most vulnerable — always guided by science, truth, and people power.


What We Do

Campaigning for environmental justice and a thriving planet.

From fighting plastic pollution and protecting rainforests to advocating for clean energy, our work spans across the most urgent environmental issues of our time. We expose harmful practices, push for better policies, and collaborate with communities to build people-powered solutions. Every action is a step toward a greener, fairer future.

How Greenpeace Malaysia Works

From bold action to behind-the-scenes strategy.

We combine research, activism, creative communication, and peaceful protest to push for systematic change. Our campaigns expose the systems and corporations driving the climate crises, and we work to build solutions — mobilising everyday people, lobbying decision-makers, and educating the public. We are independent, non-violent, and funded by individuals — never governments or corporations — so we remain accountable only to our mission.

Founders

In Vancouver, it’s joked anyone at a bar might claim to have founded Greenpeace, but its origins are distinct.

Prapokklao hospital receives funding from a crowdfunding project called Thailand Solar Fund which composes of 15 networks and organisations. The project aims to install solar panels on hospital rooftops, support renewable energy in the country, reduce carbon emission and phase away from fossil fuel.

Greenpeace Thailand is part of Thailand Solar Fund coalition that installs solar cells at hospitals in Thailand. Greenpeace is calling on Energy Regulatory Commission of Thailand to issue a Net Metering measure to promote a residential solar rooftop system.

Core Values

Our principles are reflected in all our campaigns, and they guide whatever we do, wherever we do it.
