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.
