Olhu Hiyaa is a crucial institution in the Maldives that plays a vital role in supporting vulnerable stray cats in need. However, there is a growing demand for increased transparency and improved operational standards to ensure the well-being of the intakes. One effective solution to address these concerns is to allow non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to participate actively in day-to-day operations and inspections.

Transparency not only builds trust but also enhances the quality of care and services provided to the stray intakes of Olhu Hiyaa. By permitting NGOs to send in volunteers to assist in the daily running and supervision of the facility, there is an opportunity to implement best practices in care, improve accountability, and ensure that Olhu Hiyaa is a safe and nurturing environment for rescued strays.

Volunteers from NGOs bring diverse skills, experiences, and perspectives that can greatly benefit the operation of Olhu Hiyaa. Their involvement can lead to more comprehensive inspections, ensuring that all standards are met and that any issues are promptly addressed. Furthermore, this collaboration can foster a more community-oriented approach to care, encouraging greater civic engagement and responsibility towards stray cats.

We urge the management of Olhu Hiyaa and relevant authorities to open their doors to NGO participation. By doing so, we can create a transparent, accountable, and high-standard facility that serves as a model for other institutions across the Maldives. Let us work together to ensure the best possible outcomes for those who rely on the services of Olhu Hiyaa.

Please sign this petition to advocate for a more transparent and inclusive approach at Olhu Hiyaa by allowing NGO involvement in its operations and inspections.
