Encyclopedia of Animal Law Launch Symposium

This virtual symposium, organised in collaboration with GW Law Animal Legal Education Initiative, marks the launch of the Elgar Concise Encyclopedia of Animal Law, a pioneering reference work edited by Professor Joan E. Schaffner that brings together leading scholars and practitioners from around the world. Contributing authors will present their chapters and reflect on key themes in global, comparative, aquatic, emerging, and foundational areas of animal law. You can find the full programme here. The event offers an opportunity to engage with diverse perspectives, celebrate the encyclopedia’s publication, and explore new directions for the field.
