“You have shown me I can do anything… You are changing the world, and make me feel like I can, too.” -Allison Jacquish, British Columbia

“This should be part of every program charged with educating future educators! Of all the education courses I’ve taken… this has been the most useful and inspiring.”

Humane education addresses the pressing issues of our time and promotes positive choice-making on behalf of people, animals, and the Earth. It teaches critical and creative thinking, nurtures the 3 Rs of reverence, respect and responsibility, and is one of the most important ways to help build a sustainable and just society. Zoe Weil, President of the International Institute for Humane Education (IIHE), states, “humane education inspires the next generation to live with compassion and respect, to restore our damaged earth, and to bring peace to our troubled world.”

Participants at Sowing Seeds workshops learn how to:
• present accurate information and teach critical thinking about relevant issues of our time.
• teach about consumerism and media, environmental preservation, social justice, animal protection and the connection between these issues.
• improve their communication skills.
• develop a series of presentations and activities for schools, camps, or community groups.
