Panel: The Voices of Europe on Interspecies Ethics
Alice Di Concetto was invited to speak at a panel moderated by the Minister of the Universities of Spain, Dr Manuel Castells, with Núria Almiron (Professor in Communications, University Pompeu Fabra’s Center for Animal Ethics), and Pim Martens (Professor in Sustainable Development, University of Maastricht). The event took place at the Centre de Cultura Contemporània de Barcelona, in Spain.
Join us on October 11th for a webinar organized by the Union Internationale des Avocats (UIA). Alice Di Concetto, our Chief Legal Adviser, will present on the laws affecting farmed animals in France and the EU.
Alice Di Concetto (Executive Director and Chief Legal Adviser) authored a chapter on EU Animal Law in the newly-published book “Nordic Animal Law: Welfare and Rights” (Ethics Press, 2024). This book provides an overview of animal protection laws in the Nordic countries, and is now available for purchase (hardcopies and e-book).
The European Commission’s special advisory group on agriculture has pushed for further delays in the revision of the EU animal welfare laws in their new report, published today, 4 September 2024. This jeopardizes the EU’s ambitions to update the current legislation.
