Post-Conference Update


The recordings of the presentations can be received by writing an email request to the individual speakers. We left it for them to decide, if they want to publish  or distribute their recording.

The first (online-)conference of the Network for Veterinary Humanities was a successful event, nonetheless to our wonderful speakers. With different backgrounds such as philosophy, sociology, literature studies and anthropology the speakers covered a wide range of topics. At the end of each panel, we had fruitful discussions, also together with scholars, who attended the online conference as listeners.

In our final discussion round, perspectives for the future of veterinary humanities were elaborated. We are looking forward to the things to come, and to a 2nd conference, that is planned for the future.
