On December 16, 2022, we organized, with four eminent specialists in animal rights and dietary transition - from diverse backgrounds and experiences - business manager, founder of an association, doctor specializing in plant-based diet and lawyer, a panel discussion under the title "Animal Welfare in the time of Environmental and Public Health Crisis", to discuss the current law and politics relating to the welfare of farm animals in France, and the activities of French associations to improve the conditions of farm animals.

In France, many associations fight for the defense of animal rights by rescuing the latter in shelters, while actively seeking adoptive families to offer them a second, and more decent life. Some of these associations have an annual budget amounting to several millions or even tens of millions of euros, and are leading legal proceedings against the perpetrators of trafficking or mistreatment, as well as lobbying actions with parliamentarians. Interview with Caroline Lanty, lawyer at the Paris bar, and the former President of the Society for the Protection of Animals (SPA).
