KUCHING: In its latest conservation education programme, the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) Malaysia Programme considers the questions of what makes orangutan conservation successful in the long term and how it can contribute to the communities living within protected areas.

Its Using Art and English for Conservation workshop, organised in partnership with Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus, was held for 35 pupils from SK Nanga Delok, a primary school near Batang Ai National Park.
