On this page we provide links to school projects promoted by governments or various organisations to promote companion animal welfare among school pupils. CAROdog is not directly involved in these projects, unless explicitly mentioned.
Universities coming soon: We are in the process of collating data related to universities that have specific courses on animal welfare, and other opportunities to learn more on animal welfare in further education. Please feel free to send us information that could be relevant for this new space, or join the CAROdog Newsletter to be informed when it will be launched.
