Description

Since their inception in 2015, the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have served as a framework for development - a bold attempt to accomplish some of the most comprehensive global goals ever established, including ending poverty, achieving equality, protecting the environment, and ensuring peace and prosperity. However, although the SDGs are broad and far-reaching across the three ‘one health’ domains of people, animals and the environment, they do not explicitly include animal welfare. During a tumultuous year in which human activity has been dominated by a global pandemic emerging at the human-animal-environment interface, it’s an important time to consider the interconnections between animal welfare, environmental health and human wellbeing. In this webinar, our presenters will consider how animal welfare is implicit in the SDGs agenda, and where it should receive greater prominence for its interconnections with human and environmental sustainability. They will end the session with a number of case studies demonstrating the importance of animal welfare in a changing world.
