do know: the only ones among
you who will be really happy
are those who have sought

Humane Education is a
values-based education
which encourages learners
to explore and develop their
own attitudes, life skills
and approaches on a wide
range of issues including
social justice, citizenship,
human relationships, _ the
environment and the welfare
of animals. It can be defined
as a process that encourages
an understanding of the need
for compassion and respect
for people, animals and the
environment and recognises
the interdependence of all
living things.
This year the LSPCA will
spend time and effort to
raise awareness about animal
welfare in Malawi. Many of us
are unaware that animals are
sentient beings andthe LSPCA’s

The well-known, Lilongwe
based artist Isaac Chadolo
joined our team to use
children’s art and perception
in an innovative art project
that aims to bring about
public messaging. The
Humane Chicken Transport
project sees children learning
to develop their feelings and
emotions into sketches, which
in turn will be developed into
billboard sized murals to relay
humane messaging to the
general publicm
