the most powerful tool of our organization is education. The expanse of the country and amount of animals used is far too many to provide necessary veterinary treatment. But through our seminars, workshops and training courses we can improve pony welfare. Our education program includes:
3.1 Pony Owner seminars: provides information to owners on proper feeding and care of ponies and a question/answer forum.
3.2 Community facilitator workshop: is designed as an empowering tool for community members to look after the welfare of their ponies through dialogue and interactive exercises. The community facilitator then works with people in their own community to change behavior and attitudes that impact negatively on animal welfare.
3.3 Farrier workshop: is a hands on series of workshops for local farriers to transform their method of trimming shoeing which is a major source of lameness issues and poor welfare for working ponies.
