KLCC Holdings Group (KLCCH) on Tuesday launched and announced the return of its yearly Sustainable September campaign with a strong focus on enhancing community engagement, promoting healthy living, and fostering deeper collaboration, underpinned by its four pillars of People, Planet, Peace, and Prosperity, and involves seven interacting UN Sustainability Development goals. Sustainable September 2024 is themed “Healthy Planet, Healthy You”.
At the launch, Datuk Md. Shah bin Mahmood, group chief executive officer of KLCC (Holdings) Sdn Bhd, said, “Sustainable September 2024 demonstrates our commitment to the KLCC Sustainability Plan 2030 and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Driving awareness towards sustainability is an ongoing effort and requires the dedication and commitment of various communities.”
This year, KLCCH partnered with Urbanice Malaysia to support their transformation efforts in B40 housing common spaces to boost social integration in the long term. Sustainable September 2024 also encourages volunteerism among employees by partnering with Reach Out Malaysia and Kechara Soup Kitchen to serve the community in need.
The campaign also launched its nature conservation effort to restore the coastal mangrove ecosystems with the Selangor Maritime Gateway project run by the Selangor state government.
According to KLCCH, by conserving the ecosystem, the Group aims to build a sense of community, teamwork, and educational opportunities for the volunteers.
KLCC Park will be the site with various exciting lineups, including the ‘Art in the Park,’ KLCCH’s signature art programme that has been a hit since its introduction. To promote good health and well-being, Sustainable September 2024 added to the programme: ‘Yoga with Atila Harun’, ‘Pound Fit with Hasif’ and the ‘Step Challenge’.
