Creating a Foundation for Advancement
Axiata Foundation serves as our dedicated platform for social impact, focused on uplifting marginalised and underserved communities to realise a digitally inclusive future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Anchored in education as a core driver of impact, the foundation delivers programmes across three focus areas: Leadership Development, Community Education and Environmental Education.
Nurturing Future Leaders and Digital Talent
Under the Leadership Development pillar, we deliver structured leadership programmes that empower high-performing students to reach their full potential in the digital world. We also promote equitable access to education through financial support and targeted skills development, with a focus on women, girls and students from underprivileged backgrounds.
Collaborating To Build A Healthier Planet
We are building a healthier planet through collaboration and advocacy with programmes that create public awareness of environmental issues, drive meaningful climate action and promote the circular economy.
The Impact of Axiata Foundation
Working closely with communities, NGOs, academic institutions and government partners, we identify priority needs and deliver targeted programmes that expand access to opportunities, support economic self‑sufficiency, and strengthen long-term community resilience.
Through these various programmes, we contributed a total of RM8.2 million in 2025, enriching the lives of 9,042 individuals across various demographics.
