About us
Care Farms was founded with the belief that rural communities could the more with their resources if they had informations on how to manage their soil, biodiversity and agriculture, and if they had information about possibilities for education, health and social services on farms, from kindergartens and day centres for people with dementia to health promotion, training in techniques for sutainable natural resources management and developing new sources of income.
We – Slovak organization Zvieratá a ľudia navzájom o.z. is this year 2022 are actively preparing and educating under the leadership of our Norwegian partner Dyrebar Omsorg because …Farms have a unique and versatile offer for a wide range of user groups. On a farm, there are often several animal species and many different opportunities for targeted activities and interactions with the animals. There is also a great potential for variation during a day, but also during the entire intervention period of a user. Interaction does not have to be only with the animals, but also with other people who are working or in interventions of their own on the farm.
We created Care Farms platform, which is an innovative training company using an online platform with training, technology and high quality products and services, co-funded by Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union.
Our mission is: To empower local communities and build networking opportunities across the world, to work towards the sustainable use of local resources – with an overriding commintment to education and Care Farms community development.
