Vegan education and advocacy is an important component of what sanctuaries do. MRC’s Education Starter Guide for Microsanctuaries is for folks who are new to microsanctuaries and/or sanctuary-based outreach.
Our Education Starter Guide begins with discussions of what microsanctuaries are and the philosophy behind important ideas like “small is beautiful” and “caregiving is activism,” which can help microsanctuaries to talk about their work as part of a larger movement.
Then, the guide goes over methods and venues to do sanctuary-based education, covering topics like “residents as ambassadors” and the role of effective storytelling.
Equipped with these ideas and tools, microsanctuaries can find opportunities to advocate for all exploited animals by sharing their residents’ stories before and after rescue.
We hope this new resource will serve as an introduction for those who want to do outreach, as well as a launching pad for additional learning.
