by Ontario SPCA and Humane Society | Campaigns | April 5, 2021
What if we could change the world by changing the way children view animals and the rest of the living world? Discover what’s possible at the 2021 Change for Animals virtual conference taking place May 12th-13th.
Exploring Our Relationship to Animals through K-12 Education, presented by Mike Farley and Nandita Bajaj with the University of Toronto Schools, delves into the messages being conveyed through our curriculum and school practices.
This session will explore society’s often troubled and exploitative relationships with animals, which are frequently perpetuated in our school communities. Using a humane education approach that includes animal protection, human rights, and environmental preservation, Farley and Bajaj will look at solutions, such as digital alternatives to dissection, field trips to animal sanctuaries, and curriculum resources for K-12 educators. A special emphasis will be placed on equity and inclusion for students and staff from all backgrounds.
