The Centre for Human Animal Studies (CfHAS) will be holding its inaugural conference on Saturday 25th October 2014 at Edge Hill University. The conference will also mark the official launch of CfHAS, the first centre of its kind in the UK.
The conference aims to examine how rethinking our relations with animals can create meaningful social, policy, environmental, ethical and cultural change and will centre around the three intersecting themes of ethics, sustainability and sentience.
There are three Keynote speakers for the conference, Professor Elisa Aaltola, Professor Jonathan Balcombe, and Dr Richard Twine, as well as many other talks throughout the day, including one from Vegan Society CEO, Jasmijn de Boo.
