The Animal Welfare program is based in Northern Tanzania. It surveys ten villages in the district with the goal of enhancing the current animal welfare status. The survey aims to provide an empirical foundation and make strategic decisions involving the allocation of project resources and the design of various components.
The program was established to address the five freedoms of animals, of which most farmers in the area are not aware:
- from hunger and thirst
- from discomfort
- from pain, injury, and disease
- from fear and distress
- to express normal behavior
Community members in Tanzania do not have animals as pets, with all animals considered as food, business, or guarding. By volunteering in this project, you are in turn supporting a business and family.
