Khazanah Residency Programme

The Khazanah Residency Programme aims to develop young Malaysian talents in selected disciplines by equipping them with the latest knowledge, skills and network in their respective fields. Programmes are chosen from established short-term residencies, fellowships or courses run by world renowned institutions. Participants selected for the programme, are required to pay it forward in various forms upon their completion to benefit Malaysians at large.

Khazanah’s continued support for the residency programme is aligned with our enhanced focus of building capacity and vibrant communities among Malaysians under our strategic imperative of Advancing Malaysia.

There are three programmes currently running under this initiative namely the Khazanah Media Fellowship, Khazanah Arts Residency and Khazanah Public Service Residency. In 2023, the Khazanah Design Residency (run in 2018 and 2019) will be replaced with Khazanah Sustainability Residency, in line with Khazanah’s sustainability goals and global megatrends. Total of 49 emerging talents as of 2024​ have benefited from attending various residency programmes under our helm.
