This group is for teachers, parents, and ANYONE interested in learning and sharing ideas about humane education. What is humane education?

"As a comprehensive field of study that draws connections between all forms of social justice, humane education examines what is happening on our planet, from human oppression to animal exploitation to ecological degradation. It explores how we might live with compassion and respect for everyone: not just for our friends, neighbors, and classmates, but for all people; not just for our own dogs and cats, but for all animals; not just for our school and home environments, but also for the Earth itself, our ultimate home. It invites students to envision creative solutions and to take individual action so that together we can bring about a world where kindness, integrity, and wisdom are the guiding principles in all our choices and relationships." (The Power and Promise of Humane Education, p.4)

We will meet to network, brainstorm, learn, teach, and have fun while working to create a peaceful and compassionate world for all.
