UNDP and the Environmental Information and Education Centre of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture of Georgia are inviting students from eco-clubs and secondary schools in Tbilisi and Mtskheta municipalities to submit scenarios for the sequel of the animated manga "Forest My Friend".

The animated manga was created under UNDP’s Sustainable and Climate-Friendly Forest Management project, implemented with financial assistance from Japan, in partnership with the National Forestry Agency.
