In MESYM, we are all volunteers. We gather because we want to make a difference, and there is always work to be done if you would like to help. On this page, you will find the information on what we do, what areas of help we need, and our policy towards volunteers.

This is a list of volunteer-friendly principles that we at MESYM abide by:
Anyone who is sufficiently committed can join the core team who’s in charge of driving the movement. Anyone who has a good idea can pitch it. You apply your skills and talents to the project of your choice; the level of engagement is up to your time and availability. The lack of micromanagement (we hate that – micromanagement, not the lack of it) comes with the assumption that you bear the ownership and responsibility of your tasks and projects. So, as long as you can deliver what you promise, we’re happy to let you carry out your ideas.
We respect volunteers and their work. We give prominent credit to those who contribute.The work that you do belongs to you. Our views on transparency and openness are also based on the fact that volunteers who contribute are the lifeblood of MESYM, and they deserve to have all the information that they need about how the organization is run, how the money is spent, where MESYM plans to go in the future, and so on. Any concerns of volunteers can and should be brought to the core team.
We try to make it as easy as possible for people to participate. Right now, this means that we try to publish as much useful information as possible for current and potential volunteers. We are also just an email away if there are any questions, suggestions, or if you just want to bounce ideas and explore options. Offline, we meet twice a month, at locations that are close to public transportation. The core team will be there, and all volunteers are encouraged to come whenever they can. Others who are interested to meet the team or have any ideas on collaboration, are welcome to drop by.
The volunteering culture in MESYM is such that active volunteers have similar values and worldviews on sustainable living, positive actions, solidarity with all living things, and so on. It’s a space of positive energy where like-minded people gather to contribute towards the cause. We work together, we have fun together.
The best way to learn is to do. All of us are learning on the job. Our volunteers are encouraged to be independent, creative, and proactive. Through working with us, you’ll get to learn skills and practise them. There are plenty of people to learn from and to be inspired by.
The idea is that, MESYM is an entity separate from the individuals who are working on it right now. By setting up a culture conducive to volunteers, we will ensure that the movement lives on even when current volunteers move on.
Anyone can volunteer. We don’t discriminate based on any criteria. The environmental movement concerns everybody and anyone who wants to help is welcome. International volunteers are also welcome. There are plenty of work to be done remotely  – physical presence is optional.
MESYM.com is a crowd-sourced platform and a living database for environmental movements in Malaysia. There are many good actions being done out there. Our goal is to bring them together. We connect the green dots.
