The Volunteering for International Professionals (VIP) Fellowship Programme is designed specially for professionals on career breaks who wish to volunteer in Malaysia.
The VIP Fellowship programme is a Malaysian government initiative to create a large pool of talented professionals, who are passionate about sharing their expertise and experiences globally, as expert volunteers to contribute towards nation-building.
This initiative is part of the government’s goal to transform Malaysia into a high-income nation by 2020, as announced by Malaysia’s Prime Minister, Dato’ Sri Najib Razak, at the National Blue Ocean Strategy (NBOS) Summit in December 2013. International expert volunteers offer transferable and high value skills as well as knowledge to enrich the Malaysian landscape, contributing towards the country’s ambition of being a high-income nation.
The Fellowship is designed, delivered and hosted by Impact HUB Kuala Lumpur and Scope Group on behalf of the Ministry of Finance Malaysia.
