Workshops

In conjuction with People For Animals, Goa, the Goa SPCA has conducted two workshops during 2001. In February, a workshop on the Animal Laws of India was held at Porvorim, training 60 people from the Collectorate, the police force, and other animal welfare organisations. In May, a workshop on first aid held at the PFA Panjim shelter provided hands on training to 56 members of the general public, aged 10 upwards.

Participants at both workshops, which were completely free for attendance, were also provided with extensive reading material obtained from the Animal Welfare Ministry, or purchased by corporate sponsors. Funding for these workshops was entirely obtained through corporate sponsorships and individual donations.

The Goa SPCA plans to hold many such workshops at regular intervals, most of them at the Torda facility. Your individual contribution, as participant, networker, facilitator or financer, will be accepted with gratitude.

Please contact lynn@goaspca.com if you would like to attend any of these programs.
