3Rs in i3S school outreach

Ciência et al, the i3S school outreach program, also includes activities around the 3Rs and ethics of animal experimentation for high school students. The activity Animal Experimentation and Integrity was developed in the context of the H2020 project INTEGRITY as a toolkit to be used in science classes for 16-18-year-old students, by teachers, or by scientists/science communicators in school visits.

3Rs at Universidade Júnior

Every summer, a group of high school students from schools all around Portugal have the opportunity to learn about the behaviour and welfare of farm, companion, and laboratory animals – and practice some of their new knowledge in measuring behaviour and welfare.
