Why Humane Education?
Presented by: Dr. Sarah Bexell, Director of Humane Education at the Institute for Human-Animal Connection & Visiting Clinical Associate Professor at the University of Denver Graduate School of Social Work
Description: At no time in human history has the need for humane education been more acute. Tensions between humans, environmental devastation and rampant abuse of other animals are at an all time high. Humane education demonstrates how human-human, human-animal, and human-Earth bonds can bring about deep and lasting social, emotional, cognitive, physical, spiritual and psychological changes to heal the Earth and allow her to maintain humanity and for humans to live with each other and other species in peace and with compassion. Dr. Bexell will also discuss the potential for humane education to help those impacted by animal cruelty and interpersonal violence as well as resources for incorporating humane education into your practice.
