    Institute for Humane Education: Connecting Schools, Sanctuaries, and Shelters: Community Conversation

    The Institute for Humane Education is hosting a free community conversation on how teachers in schools and educators running programs at animal shelters and sanctuaries can collaborate to bring humane education to more students. We'll start with a casual panel discussion, and then we'll open the floor for what will surely be a vibrant conversation.

    Here's our stellar group of panelists:
    ✦ Mike Farley - Teacher at University of Toronto Schools and Senior Lecturer at Antioch University and the Institute for Humane Education
    ✦ Lanette Cook - Education and Engagement Manager at Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary
    ✦ Don Seller - Education Program Manager at Alberta SPCA
    ✦ Betsy Farrell-Messenger - Solutionary Teaching & Learning Facilitator at the Institute for Humane Education

    The conversation will be particularly relevant for you if you work or volunteer at:
    - A school where you want to bring humane education into the curriculum
    - An animal shelter or humane society
    - A farmed animal sanctuary
    - Another humane education program with a desire to collaborate

    This is an open and interactive call, though we still encourage you to join if you're just interested in listening and learning!

    To RSVP and attend this event, you have to join IHE's Circle Community (which is free!): https://humaneeducation.org/join-the-community

    Once you've joined Circle, head to the "Community Events" page to RSVP.

    If you have any issues, questions, or just want to connect, please email emily@humaneeducation.org

    We hope to see you there!

    I created an account and went to events, but I am unsure which event this is.  Descriptions did not match. Is the the GLOW conference or something else?

    Hi Stephanie! The event is taking place on IHE's Circle community. When you're logged into the website, go to the Dashboard then there's a section that says "Connect in the Circle Community." Click the button that says "Go to Circle" and navigate to the events page there. You can also try this link that goes directly to the event, which might not work until you've opened Circle for the first time: https://humane-education.circle.so/c/ihe-events/animal-protection-network-call-dd9dd1

    Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any additional questions! We're working on streamlining this sign up process and also really appreciate feedback.

    Great! I'm signed up. I asked on the class page, but do you know if this will be available at a later date? I have a meeting midway through the scheduled time. Thank you!
