Compassion fatigue is a complex psychological phenomenon that can have a profound effect on professionals working in direct contact with animals, particularly in research. Between the empathy required to care for animals and the sometimes emotionally taxing demands of this field, it is essential to recognise and understand this condition in order to preserve the mental health of teams.

This training course, specially designed for professionals in the sector, aims to raise awareness of the risks of compassion fatigue, better manage its impact and introduce working practices that promote the emotional well-being of employees, while guaranteeing respect for the animals.
