WWF-MALAYSIA RELEASES ITS THIRD FAITH-BASED ANIMATION SERIES ON CHRISTMAS DAY

PETALING JAYA, Selangor, Dec 24 (Bernama) -- In the effort to combine religion with environmental education in our country, the World Wide Fund for Nature Malaysia is releasing thirteen short animation series inspired by the teachings and values of Christianity on its official YouTube channel (WWFMy).

'When We're Friends (WWF) with Nature animation series explores the adventures of Moses, his friends, and communities in understanding the works of nature and their role to protect it. The characters discuss pressing environmental issues such as landslides, endangered species, global warming, human-wildlife conflict, and many more.

"Just like the previous faith-based animation series, to connect the conservation messages with religious values, we worked with experts to build the content. The series uses catchy songs and colourful animation to reach the younger generation, the future stewards of the planet. We want to educate them and show how religion promotes caring for the earth," said Sophia Lim, WWF-Malaysia Executive Director/CEO.

She added, "We hope this effort contributes to the scarcity of resource materials that connect religion and the environment. The animation series can also be a teaching and learning aid in the classroom or Sunday school. Students will be able to address environmental issues based on their understanding from the religious viewpoint".
