Educational Programs

"The aim of education is the knowledge not of facts but of values"

"Respect for Life" 


We conduct free and popular educational programmes for government public schools. The objective of this programme is to stimulate kindness and compassion in children towards animals and to improve negative behaviour patterns towards the respectful treatment of all living creatures. These free programmes are possible with the monetary support of our private programmes and donations from you.​

Animal Welfare Clubs


Until the end of 2015, HCAW’s education team had established Animal Welfare Clubs at 91 public schools in 15 towns across Jordan; reaching from Irbid, Al Koura, Bani Kinanah, Jerash, Ajloun in the North via Al Salt, Ein Al Basha, South Shouneh, Madaba, Theiban, Muwaqar, Al Jeezeh, and Amman in the Central Region down South to Kerak and Petra. These clubs comprised about 20,800 student members and around 1950 teachers and educators for the 13 years the clubs were running outside the center. Ongoing, we have our Animal Welfare Clubs directly at the center.

School Visits


Private schools are welcome to visit HCAW for our animal welfare classes in our Educational Room. The nominal financial contribution that private schools contribute subsidizes the free program for public schools. Up-to-date, more than 9,000 students aged 2 to 17 years from private schools have attended our classes in which we use different interactive educational methods like “See”, “Hear”, “Touch” and “Feel”.
If your school is interested in participating in our animal welfare programs, please call us today. We offer daily programs and are always happy to welcome new students. 

Co-Op with J.U.S.T


HCAW places great emphasis on the need for undergraduate veterinary students to receive practical training. Thus, under an agreement with the “Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST)”, we make available our veterinary hospital and facilities to undergraduates to gain practical experience and we conduct an applied course on professional veterinary principles with an emphasis on ethical and professional standards.

Environmental Garden


Our high school students also have the opportunity to help us grow our new Environmental Garden. With our garden we teach students and visitors the importance of nurturing our environment.

More information coming soon....

Companion Animal Therapy


Companion animals serve to enrich our lives by providing psychological benefits on various levels. Animal Therapy helps to lower stress levels, build confidence and even reduce feelings of loneliness. We have welcomed orphans, the physically and mentally challenged, the socially abused, the deaf, mute and victims of family violence. 

 
You are very welcome to contact us if you would like to organise a visit to HCAW for any special needs group.
