Global Peace Mission (GPM) Malaysia

Global Peace Mission (GPM) Malaysia is a Trust Foundation which is incorporated under the Trustee Act (Incorporation) 1952, Legal Affairs Division (BHEUU), Prime Minister Office (PMO) Malaysia. It was been established on 26th September 2001 as a movement protesting the declaration of war by the United States and its allies against Afghanistan after the event of 11th September 2001. When Afghanistan was invaded early October of the same year, GPM had mobilized a humanitarian and medical aid mission to help the victims of the war. Since then, aside from actively providing emergency assistance, GPM has been providing other humanitarian aid not only to Afghanistan, but to nearly 20 countries in need worldwide. GPM began mobilizing assistance such as rehabilitation projects to assist in the rehabilitation of war victims, development of education centers and vocational training for refugees and disaster victims in stages, as well as development and capacity development programs in the socio-economic and living aspects. GPM has been actively involved in promoting the importance of fostering and maintaining universal peace through awareness programs and information for the community as well as raising funds to assist victims of war and natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, famine and tsunami.
