Our Journey
What started as a disruptive group of passionate volunteers expanded into a team of permanent staff members from diverse nationalities and backgrounds.
What started in a humble apartment and then a house in Jalan Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur grew rapidly due to persistence, grit, amazing team members, and an even more supportive Malaysian network.
Today, Biji-biji is based in Publika, Malaysia’s creativity hub in KL. Hear the stories of the Biji-biji Team here.
