ACTIN, making changes for animals in Spain.

Animal care Treatment International Network has been set up to make changes for the animals in Spain, who suffer abandonment and cruelty. What we plan to do is to bring awareness of the problems to the world’s media. We need to promote education, new legislation and support neutering campaigns. It is necessary to get support Internationally to put pressure to bear on the Spanish government and to persuade them to take more responsibility for the lack of animal welfare in Spain. ACTIN plans in the future to bring about these changes through media awareness. Actin will tell the truth of how it is on an everyday basis, particularly in the country villages of Murcia, where there is a lot of ignorance and abuse. They will tell of what the volunteers deal with and how the abuse of animals is getting worse. ACTIN will endeavor to bring about campaigns for sterilization and education in schools. There is a need for a Society to protect the animals and this is what ACTIN aim to do in the future but we need much support to achieve our aims.

Meeting on the 17th January 2013
Sunday, December 30, 2012 @ 4:22 PM

 It is one year since we started thinking about the problems and issues in Spain and the realisation that constantly rescuing was not the answer but just a sticking plaster.  We need a cure and so we started to make contact with many people who felt the same way.  Thankfully we discovered a lot of people who care too and many Spanish organisations, as well as people throughout Europe who are trying to help.

We held a meeting in Cartagena on the 17th January 2012 to throw some ideas into the pot and to try to find some ways towards some solutions.  Now we have formed the ACTIN Association which is 6 months old and we are making activities to try to improve things.  We realise of course it is a huge task, some of the many things we are trying to do is to make awareness and consciousness, to find a way to educate, to promote sterilisation and to generally advocate all the many things we know might help.  I believe we are moving in the right direction but the Association is very new and we have a lot to do and a long way to go.
 
We need good support and strong committee members for the ACTIN Association. If you are interested in attending this next meeting in Cartagena on 17th January 2013 and joining our Association that advocates animal welfare laws implemented in Spain, along with many other activities to promote awareness, education, sterilisation and compassion to all animals, please write to admin@actin-spain.com   Thank you.
