Over the past three years, the SAWE Jean Monnet Module has brought together students, researchers and practitioners across Europe to explore animal welfare law and ethics through three Summer Schools — each one opening a different angle on a field that continues to evolve alongside our understanding of animals and their place in society.
On 16 July 2026, we will conclude this journey with the SAWE Final Conference: Animal Welfare Law and Ethics — Reflecting on European Concepts.
The conference is conceived as an opportunity for dialogue rather than a series of formal presentations. Bringing together the project team and the wider community, it will provide a space to look back on the main themes emerged across the three Summer Schools, discuss current developments in animal welfare, law and ethics stands today, and explore future perspectives and possible new initiatives building on the SAWE experience.
Alongside a few introductory contributions, there will be ample opportunity for discussion, exchange of ideas and interaction with participants.
👥 Who should join
This conference is open to anyone interested in animal welfare law and ethics: professionals, early-career researchers and PhD candidates, and recent graduates who want to engage with current developments in the field and to exchange ideas with colleagues from different backgrounds.
🔄 Please, feel free to share this invitation with colleagues and students and anyone who might be interested.
We look forward to welcoming you on 16 July.
