In a veterinary context, humane education involves intentionally integrating animal welfare, empathetic client communication, and environmental awareness into everyday practice. It is about looking beyond the clinical outcome to consider the broader ethical picture, helping to shape a more compassionate community in the process. And while it’s something you’re probably already practicing every day, understanding what it is and how it can impact your patients, clients, and community can make a big difference.

Meet Mariana Pardo, a veterinary emergency and critical care specialist, founder, and social media content creator. While she loves the rush of emergency medicine, she also loves teaching and empowering others so that they can provide care to pets in families in their communities.
Another passion of hers is diversity, equity, and inclusion in veterinary medicine. As a mom, she said she is reminded daily by her children that life is more than work. “Motherhood re-centers me,” she said. “It reminds me of what I’m fighting for: a world that is kinder and more equitable, for them and for every child.”
This inspiration helps to fuel her work advocating for diversity, equity, and inclusion within veterinary medicine, particularly to ring more attention to the barriers faced by international, Latinx, and underrepresented veterinarians within the industry.
