We encompass all forms of education concerning community, environmental issues and the welfare of animals, recognizing the interdependence of all living things, utilizing value based education that develops sensitivity to all life, an appreciation of diversity and tolerance of difference which encourages children to become more emphatic and compassionate in order to learn to live with greater respect for everyone.

Our education outreach programmes engages schools, camps and after school programme in a fun and exciting ways to learn about being compassionate. We do a lot of work with local schools, educating and encouraging an interest in conservation and the natural world.

GENERAL PRINCIPLE
Humane Global Network policy is based on the extensive scientific research which has revealed that animal have feeling and emotions and therefore feel pain and experience distress. Humane Global Network therefore look beyond the conservation of species to the welfare of individuals.

OUR ACHIEVEMENT
Humane Global Network has gotten a lot of popularity in Alimosho Lagos over the years. Humane Global Network has organised successful programmes like the Animal Exhibition Show , Animal Conference Show Animal Bill of Rights Actions etc.. Recently the Humane Global Network Director has been to Ghana on invitation to address the staff volunteers of the Society for the Animal Welfare Ghana, and has also been invited by the Liberia Animal Welfare Society and Animal Care Council of Liberia. The Humane Global Network is making a tremendous difference in the lives of many animals and people. Currently, The Humane Global Network is one of the organizations in Nigeria that has been providing humane education to the public. The need for education on animal welfare in Nigeria is pertinent. We believes that education is key to ending animal cruelty and creating a just and caring society where animal and human welfare matter. Education is a critical element in preparing a generation of animal lovers, increasing community responsiveness to animal welfare issues. Education also helps to tackle the inhumane treatment of animals at abattoirs, educate the general population on animal welfare, and to change attitudes and practices towards humane treatment of animals.

WHO WE ARE
The Humane Global Network is a corporate organization that is supported purely by individual volunteers. Funding comes from friends, school proprietors, and animal welfare locally. The purpose of the Humane Global Network is to promote kindness to animals and educate the kids about animals in Africa. Animals concerned include farm animals and laboratory animals. Humane Global Network carries out its activities through individual personal effort and volunteering. Members play a crucial role day to day to ensure that the objectives of the organization are turned into realities. Through the activities of Humane Global Network most pupils in Lagos now know the existence of basic animal rights and also about the animal world. Also people who by superstitious belief have negative perceptions about how some of these animal behave are now appreciating the presence and importance of these animal in the ecosystem.
