On March 14th, 2023, Entomal, Taylor’s University, and Impact Circle MY will be signing a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) at Taylor’s University. This event marks an important milestone in the collaboration between the three organizations to promote sustainable food production and consumption in Malaysia.
Entomal is a Malaysian-based startup that focuses on sustainable insect farming for food and feed production. They are committed to reducing food waste and promoting a more sustainable way of feeding the world. Taylor’s University, on the other hand, is a leading private university in Malaysia that has a strong commitment to sustainable development. They have been actively involved in various sustainability initiatives and research projects in Malaysia and the region.
Impact Circle MY is a non-profit organization that supports social enterprises and impact-driven businesses in Malaysia. Their mission is to create a more sustainable and equitable economy by supporting innovative solutions that address social and environmental challenges.
The MOA signing will formalize the collaboration between these three organizations in promoting sustainable food production and consumption in Malaysia. The collaboration will include research projects, knowledge sharing, and capacity building initiatives that aim to promote sustainable insect farming and consumption in Malaysia.
One of the key focus areas of this collaboration is to promote the use of insects as a sustainable protein source. Insects are a highly nutritious and sustainable source of protein that require fewer resources and produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional livestock. However, the consumption of insects is still not widely accepted in Malaysia and many other countries. This collaboration aims to promote awareness and education about the nutritional and environmental benefits of insect consumption and to explore new and innovative ways to incorporate insects into the Malaysian diet.
The MOA signing event will be an opportunity for stakeholders from various sectors, including academia, government, and the private sector, to come together and discuss the importance of sustainable food production and consumption in Malaysia. The event will feature presentations from experts in the field of sustainable agriculture, as well as panel discussions and networking opportunities.
In conclusion, the MOA signing between Entomal, Taylor’s University, and Impact Circle MY on March 14th, 2023, marks an important step forward in promoting sustainable food production and consumption in Malaysia. This collaboration brings together the expertise and resources of three organizations that share a common goal of creating a more sustainable and equitable future for all Malaysians.
