New Erasmus+ Project PAW – Protection of Animal Welfare in School

We are very happy to announce you the begging of the new project “PAW – Protection of Animal Welfare in School Education” which is the result of a joint effort by several different organizations from countries such as Poland, Greece, Spain, Lithuania and Northern Macedonia to create effective methods for animal welfare education and therapy with animals.

After conducting thorough research in the aforementioned countries, we came to the conclusion that most educational systems do not include animal welfare in their curricula or as an additional subject.

Taking this into account, PAW is establishing a joint plan to not only create and implement new educational resources on animal welfare, but also to encourage all interested parties to develop these and other ideas in educational programs.

At PAW, we are also committed to promoting pet adoption and therapy with animals, especially for those for whom these therapies have proven effective, such as children, seniors and people with special needs.

If you would like to learn more about the project or be part of our international network, please contact us.
