This is a short film I made on a conference I attended on putting environmental education into faith schools - teaching children through their faith about caring for the earth. It was held by ARC (Alliance of Religions and Conservation). 70-80% of schools in Africa are somehow linked to faith institutions - in Kenya 70% of the population is either a Christian or Muslim. Teaching the next generation about caring for this planet through faith teachings is a very good way of reaching many hearts and minds.
The next film is very short - I made it on the last morning. Hassan in a teacher in a muslim school on the coast of Kenya. He is passionate about nature and sees a link between traditional wisdom and Islamic teachings.
