Debate
Ethical dilemmas can arise due to the different value afforded to the lives of humans and non-human animals. Human society's focus is typically anthropocentric (putting human interests first), but high standards of animal welfare are also valued and desired. The session will explore how veterinary professionals can be effective animal welfare advocates, ensuring that animal interests and human needs and wants are justifiably balanced.
Learning Outcomes
- Reflecting on ethical values in the context of animal welfare
- Considering how to justifiably weigh human and animal interests
- Ensuring that veterinary professionals effectively and consistently advocate animal interests
