Lewis & Clark Law School Animal Legal Defense Fund

Join animal welfare advocacy organizations and students and faculty in discussion with Dr. Terzi about the state of animal welfare policies in the U.S. and EU, what these policies mean for food safety and health and what people on both sides of the Atlantic can do to strengthen animal welfare policies globally.

Food Law and Policy conversations are becoming increasingly prevalent in academic, legal, and popular discourse. The food we eat, and our laws and policy governing it, have a profound impact on urban and rural communities, the natural environment, and animals. This year’s symposium takes a critical, intersectional, and interdisciplinary look at the environmental and food justice impacts of our food systems, the public health implications of our food choices, and business of food in our modern world.
