Summer School 2022: Animals and Public Policy - Embodying, Implementing, and Institutionalising Animal Ethics

We are witnessing a change in attitudes to animals ‚ from the idea that they are tools, machines, commodities, here for our use, to the idea that they are sentient beings who have intrinsic value, dignity, and rights. This Summer School will be concerned with how that change of attitude should be embodied, implemented and institutionalised in public policy, including legislation, education, business, arts, sciences, literature, and religion.
