Improve Your Advocacy Knowledge and Skills with HumaneSpot

Knowing about recent trends, acquiring accurate, credible information and honing skills are all important tools for effective humane educators. For those interested especially in animal and environmental protection issues, HumaneSpot is a useful resource. HumaneSpot, a project of the Humane Research Council, provides access to relevant and credible research, surveys, and other data, as well as information for becoming more effective advocates.

In order to get the most out of HumaneSpot, educators and activists can submit an application (free) that seeks to ensure that users of their research database are sincere about advocacy and animal/environmental protection. Approved applicants then have access to thousands of articles, surveys, studies and more, from a variety of sources.

Since I don't have a lot of time, I find their blog and regular e-news most helpful, as they summarize recent news and additions to the database, and I can pick and choose the ones most relevant to my needs and interests.

Connecting with people is an important part of creating a humane world, but so is being an informed and empowered educator. HumaneSpot offers information and resources to help you in offering accurate information about animal protection and environmental preservation issues, as well as in becoming a more-effective and compassionate advocate.
