We would like to acknowledge that the Animal Welfare Program (AWP) aims to improve the lives of animals through research, education, and outreach. Students, faculty, and visitors in the AWP come from all around the world. We recognize that many members of the AWP are settlers in “Canada”. We acknowledge that we regularly gather, reside, work, and interact with animals on the unceded territory of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam) and Stó:lō Nations.

The AWP engages with several disciplines of animal welfare, from researching animals in society, science, and companion animal contexts, to of course, dairy cattle. But what about wild animals? Join AWP alumni Liv, Nadia, and Erin, for our seventh episode about wild animal welfare and conservation!

What if humane societies rediscovered their roots in social reform? Why should animal welfare professionals brush up on communications and policy skills? What is the “labour of love” mindset? Geoff, Sara, Christine, and Elisabeth, a diverse and international panel of speakers, joined us for our sixth episode for a discussion on the animal protection movement.

Join Ruan, Pilar, and our current AWP Research Coordinator, Katia, in our fourth episode to learn about animal welfare in Latin America, from the challenges of disseminating research back at their local universities, to the emergence of One Welfare.

Curious about how the veterinary field is evolving? Veterinarians Dax, Alex, and Art joined us in-person in Room 180 to dive into how animal welfare looks like in veterinary practice, the importance of mental wellness in the profession, and even how you can make vet visits easier for your own pet.

Is pursuing a path in academia right for you? What will the world look like for the next generation, considering the impact of climate change? And how are these questions related? In our first official episode, join Cassandra, Katy, and Becca and get introduced to what “Room 180” means to our alumni. Delve into the questions above as we discuss not only how to improve the lives of animals through academia, but also how animal welfare and academia as a whole may evolve in the future.
