We’re looking for schools committed to animal welfare

Our dream is to have all schools include animal welfare in their educational projects and contribute to creating a healthy bond with our pets.

Just as most schools have become “green schools” by implementing recycling methods and their students by defending these methods. Our dream is for schools to take on the challenge of becoming speakers for animals rights and a responsible bond between humans and their pets. Fundación Patas Arriba was created to help them reach this goal.

AWARENESS

Our first contact with the school is a one-hour workshop, ideal for students from elementary to high school.

The objective is to promote awareness around abandonment, the work shelters do, and the role of the volunteer. We can adapt the topics according to the needs of each school.

LEARNING SITUATION

Intended for students in the 3rd cycle of primary school and ESO.

Designed for elementary to high school students.
This program consists of 8-10 interdisciplinary sessions within the framework of a learning situation in which students will finish by doing an awareness project.

We will support groups, assess them, teach, and provide materials.

COMMUNITY SERVICES

We offer the possibility for students in 3rd and 4th of ESO to do their volunteer hours with us. We adapt to the needs of each educational center and its students offering the possibility of doing an internship in an animal shelter, helping in awareness actions or collaborating virtually with our mission.

For over a decade, we’ve been dedicated to coordinating volunteers, with special care for our younger volunteers who want to do their part.

RESEARCH PROJECTS

Accompany and provide support for research projects around animal welfare.

We’ve seen a great demand among students to do their projects on this topic, which they feel passionate about.

In recent years, we have held workshops for primary to high school students. By using a participatory methodology and visual aids, we achieved the students’ attention and their participation. As we’re aware of the differences between schools and municipalities, we always adapt the topics and level of each session to meet those needs. We can complement the sessions with work materials for the teacher and supervise as needed.

The project is based on the Jaime Mateu’s (president of the Foundation) Final Project for his degree in Education, presented in March of 2024: “Service learning and animal wellness: goals for the 21st century school”. The focus of the project, the materials created, and the evaluation are all aligned with the educational law LOMLOE, as well as the Law for Animal Welfare approved in March of 2023. The foundation’s proposal is to actively collaborate during the first three years of implementation for these learning situations by facilitating the teachers’ tasks, and providing follow-up.

We don’t just offer the opportunity to coordinate volunteers with us, we can also carry out sessions before or after the visit to explain concepts around animal welfare, responsible pet ownership, as well as defining what kind of actions can be put in place to improve the situation in each municipality.

Visits to the shelter can be done on Sundays, where we carry out a variety of activities adapted to the needs of each student. The awareness work can be carried out on Saturday or Sunday. The online option will depend on the skills of each student and the needs of the foundation.

If a school wants to organize an activity benefiting the foundation, we can help both in planning and execution.

The format of a research project based on field experience is optimal to understand the reality of a municipality with respect to animal welfare.

We hope to collaborate with many students who are concerned about animal welfare, as it helps us to create a realistic picture of the current situation as well as make proposals for improvements.

ALL MATERIALS PROVIDED WILL BE ADAPTED TO THE NEEDS OF THE EACH SCHOOL.

WHY NOW?

We find ourselves in an optimal political and social context to develop the concept of animal welfare in school as Law 7/2023 for the Protection of Animal Rights and Welfare, approved on 28th of March, went into effect on the 29th of September.

This is the first law which establishes a common framework for autonomous communities. In its article 2, the law states “To carry out educational activities around animal welfare” and puts focus on the education, training, and awareness of citizens, especially our youth. It also states in article 20 “it will drive the creation of agreements with other public administrations aimed at educating society on any form of animal abuse, in particular, educating minors on values related to the care of protection of animals”.

In addition, the current educational legislation created a framework to develop this type of educational proposals. Organic Law of Education 3/2020 of the 29th of December, which modified Organic Law 2/2006 of the 3rd of May (aka LOMLOE) states in Annex I that students should “develop a responsible attitude by becoming aware of the degradation of the environment as well as animal abuse based on the causes that provoke, aggravate or improve it, from both a systemic and a global vision. LOMLOE published basic competencies in the area of Education on Civic Values and Ethics and the respect for animal life and their care and protection, which is evaluation with criteria 3.2 “Actively commit with values, practices and attitudes in line with the respect, care, and protection of persons, animals and the planet…”.

How are we funded?

We are funded by our member dues and with activities we organize such as concerts, fairs, benefits, etc as well as the public grants we’ve been awarded.
