Talking Animals, Law & Philosophy talk series
Created in 2015, the Talking Animals, Law & Philosophy series is an online talk series providing a welcoming, engaging and rigorous forum for debate and ideas about the relations between animals, law, and philosophy more broadly.
All events in this series are free and open to all.
The views expressed in these talks are those of the respective speakers and do not necessarily reflect the position of the Cambridge Centre for Animal Rights Law. The series is made possible through generous sponsorship by the International Society for Animal Rights (ISAR).
