The symposium is directed towards researchers involved in animal and veterinary sciences, human-animal interactions, ethics, policy and law, economics and marketing, among other areas. The concept for this symposium is to advance the broad subject of animal welfare, by providing a friendly scientific forum for researchers to share and discuss their results and ideas.

The symposium is arranged in collaboration with the platform SLU Future Animals, Nature and Health.
