“As the Ministry of Education and Merit we have included the protection and respect for animals in the soon-to-be-issued civic education guidelines”. Paola Frassinetti, Undersecretary of State at the Ministry of Education and Merit, said this this morning in Rome on the occasion of the press conference presenting the results of the training projects organized by the National Association of Italian Veterinary Doctors (Anmvi), the latest of which ‘With Zampa, a One Health lesson’, promoted with the unconditional contribution of Msd Animal Health.
“I believe – adds Frassinetti – that starting from nursery school it is important to encourage the child-animal relationship” thanks to the contribution of veterinarians, who are professional figures “adequate to introduce animals in an in-depth perspective. Having a correct relationship with animals is very important in the growth of a citizen. It is a better world – he concludes – one in which children and young people can learn directly at school about respect for the environment and animals, knowing, accepting and welcoming every living being. , understand that anyone who, in any way, uses violence against an animal can easily do so against a person too.”
