About Us

Rumah Rakyat is a platform created in collaboration with Yayasan Inovasi Malaysia, SME Corp Malaysia, Biji-biji Initiative, and Me.reka. The platform acts as a directory to unite PPR communities in Malaysia. Through this directory, changemakers, impact organizations, and entrepreneurs have direct access to PPR communities, relevant stakeholders and community leaders, increasing the efficiency in the process of crafting solutions for community-centric issues.

This directory bridges the gap between the underutilized resources, passionate changemakers and the communities by directly connecting the impactors to the community leaders.

Vision
Create digitally connected
communities to foster
collaboration and social innovation.
Mission
Build a directory of PPR
communities within Malaysia and connect them to an ecosystem of local and international impactors and interventions.
