Some animal advocates – sometimes referred to as “abolitionists” – would claim that welfare reforms are useless, even harmful, in pursuing a world without animal exploitation. Others – sometimes referred to as “welfarists” – believe that it is very helpful, even necessary, to incrementally transform the industry. This debate is one of the foundational questions in Effective Animal Advocacy.
Join us at our Deep Dive! Georg Prinz (VGT) will give a presentation about the Welfarism vs Abolitionism debate to provide a rough overview of both sides. Afterwards, we will have a general Q&A session to clear up any questions, followed by small group discussions, where you will have the chance to provide your input and arguments!
