In 2019, Barna Group partnered with World Vision to dramatically widen – and focus – the lens we use to view young adults around the world. We interviewed more than 15,000 adults aged 18 to 35 in 25 countries to learn about their goals, fears, relationships, routines and beliefs. This helped the global Church better understand young adults, partner with them in discipleship and activate them in leadership.
In 2020, World Vision Malaysia and Alpha Malaysia jointly hosted the inaugural Faith for the Future forum. We invited Barna to release the largest-ever global study on Millennials, unpacking their attitudes towards Christianity and contextualizing its findings for Malaysia.
In 2021, the Faith for the Future 2.0 – Into a Digital Era virtual forum further explored Millennials and their perspective towards faith in the digital era.
