EcoKnights’ Core Values
Creativity & Innovation
We believe in consistently evolving with the Malaysian mainstream mindset in order to position our educational and awareness-building activities as relevant, solution-oriented, positive and empowering.
Sustainability
We like to practice what we preach and anyone involved with EcoKnights is encouraged to be more responsible – at work or home, making the current word slightly better one less truant at a time.
Passion
EcoKnights® value a passionate soul. A passion to serve and protect humanity by working on small efforts at the grassroots level is drilled into the team to produce individuals that are both ecologically conscious and responsible.
Respect
Without respect, we wouldn’t be able to create meaningful programs that serve the broader goals of sustainability. We strive to ensure that all of our activities are conducted with the utmost respect to any and every sensitivity that arises.
