The focus of the Animals & Biodiversity programme is to provide meaningful insights on animal studies from an interdisciplinary perspective. The aim of this programme is to highlight the connections between various issues concerning Animals and Biodiversity, bringing together diverse academic fields such as Animal Law, Environmental Law, Animal Ethics, and Animal Welfare Science.

We are committed to delivering updates on recent developments on Animals & Biodiversity through the publication of many resources, including working papers, recommended readings, blog posts, and other information on upcoming events and current initiatives, and by presenting interviews and workshops on topical issues such as the developing legal existence of animals, the phenomenon of animal labour, the potential tensions between human activities and animals’ interests, the impact of environmental crime on biodiversity, and the relationship between livestock farming, human-animal health and welfare, and climate change.

Both the Junior Fellows Marine Lercier and Eva Bernet Kempers are interested in addressing the interactions between Environmental Law, Animal Law, and Human Rights Law, and with their research, they wish to contribute to answering the global challenge of inter-species justice.
