Meeting in Council for animal ethics; plans for Animal ethics conference

Today I have attended the first ever digital meeting of Norway´s Council for animal ethics (in Zoom). 4 hours including lunch break. The meeting included two lectures in addition to the discussion matters - the lectures were on turkey husbandry (held by Guro Vasdal, Animalia) and cleaner fish (held by Inger Fyllingen, Norwegian Food Safety Authority) respectively.

We decided to delay this autumn´s planned animal ethics conference with reindeer herding to the eutumn of 2021. Instead we will arrange a digital animal ethics conference this year, with the human/animal health interface as topic - tentatively September 24th.
