Volunteers work alongside our team to help implement humane-education activities on the ground. Your main tasks include delivering interactive lessons on animal welfare and empathy in schools and community centers, co-creating learning materials, leading outreach sessions with children, parents, and community members, and coordinating with local partners such as teachers, NGOs, and community leaders.
