School Education Project



Youth education is very important so that young people have an understanding of issues such as animal rights, detriments of the meat industry, and health and nutrition. They can therefore make ethical choices in their daily life and influence change.

So how can you educate the youth? As a starting point, there is a briefing about organizing school talks in your country on the EVU website for you to look at. Each country, however, has their own issues which needs to be focused on and therefore this should be taken into consideration. For example, your country may need to focus on anti-vivisection education because this is the main issue.

As a follow up to the briefing, it would be of great help to know what your thoughts are, your experiences and problems regarding school talks, and what issues you think are relevant to your country. If you are able to do so, it would be useful if you could write a short article about school education in your country, which we could publish on the education section of the EVU website.

This would be a great way for everyone to learn about what goes on in different countries with regards to school education, what differences and problems there are from country to country, and for anyone to make any comments or suggestions.
