The first Law Lecturers’ Workshop organised by the Cambridge Centre for Animal Rights Law took place from 6-8 March 2020. Lecturers from Trinity College Dublin, Newcastle University, the Open University in the Netherlands, and from the University of Osijek, Croatia came to Cambridge for a three-day Workshop geared to help them design their own Animal Rights Law courses. The next Law Lecturers’ Workshop will be held in spring 2021. More information about the Workshop is available here.
A Warm Welcome to our Visiting Students
The Cambridge Centre for Animal Rights Law is thrilled to welcome its first Visiting Students who will be staying in Cambridge during Lent Term: Nick Ampt, a PhD candidate at Melbourne Law School, and Robyn Trigg, a non-practising solicitor who is also pursuing a DPhil in Law at Magdalene College, Oxford. Our Visiting Students will be working on their own research and will be contributing to our research community by delivering a presentation in the Talking Animals, Law & Philosophy series, and by chairing a session in our new Topics in Animal Rights Law Seminar. They will be members of St Edmund’s College for the duration of their visit. Nick’s and Robyn’s full research profiles, including abstracts of their research, can be accessed in the People section of this website.
