If the work isn't sustainable, we're not interested.
We don't chase short-term gains, and we are not building an organization that depends on foreign funding to survive. Animal welfare in Jordan needs to be Jordanian-led, with the local capacity to keep going after the grant cycles end and the headlines fade. We welcome partnerships — especially the ones that leave us more self-sufficient, not less.
Research and education are sustainability
This is also why research and education sit at the core of what we do. Welfare alone is treadmill work — you treat the animal in front of you, and another arrives tomorrow. Research produces the evidence that lets us target scarce resources where they generate the most lasting impact. Education changes the attitudes and trains the veterinarians that will outlive any single program or grant cycle. By their nature, these outcomes are sustainability.
Welfare, self-sustained
The numbers below are a live report of one slice of this work — our welfare programs, almost entirely sustained by VET9, our for-profit veterinary clinic.
