context_page_description: The Italian Horse Protection Association is the only rescue center in Italy for mistreated and confiscated equines, based on Law 189 of 2004.
context_section_description: The main goal of the Italian Horse Protection Association is the psychological and physical recovery of equines, subjected to sequestration under Law 189 of 2004 (Mistreatment of animals). Beyond that it strives to raise awareness of the ethological characteristics and the specific needs of the equine species. In IHP’s view equines are very often misunderstood by their human counterparts, resulting sometimes in unintentional mistreatment due to this lack of understanding.
