Instructions and information for how the day and sessions will run.
Animal Justice Party QLD
If you missed out on this year’s national Animal Rights Forum in Sydney, now’s your chance to get the highlights from local activists Johann and Lucy who were there and will be reporting back! Even if you were there too, this will be a great opportunity for a refresher and to get an overview from some of the sessions that you couldn’t get along to.
Enjoy a delicious lunch included with your ticket.
Jesse Heidemann will be leading a discussion circle over lunch about barriers to activism.
Get involved in the discussion circle, chill out, or chat with someone; it's up to you.
Pigeon Rescue Queensland
Caring for Wildlife
This session is a panel discussion about how people are saving wild animals. There will be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and get involved.
Farm Animal Rescue
Animals born into agriculture are behind before they start. Genetic alterations designed to accelerate growth and increase weight place a burden on farmed animals, even those who make it to sanctuary. Brad will be talking about the detail and evolution of these genetic alterations, and will tell stories of animals at sanctuary suffering from genetic design and about how we work as a sanctuary to provide a good life of free-roaming freedom to these animals, despite their disabilities.
UQ Vegan Society
Animal-Free Science Advocacy
Action for Animals Community
Brisbane Vegan Meetup
This will be some quickfire talks to whet your appetite for the topics. 5 minutes for each speaker, 5 slides maximum.
Talks will be:
- Cameron Green - Digital Activism with the a4acommunity.org website
- Rachel Smith - The work of Animal Free Science Advocacy
- Jennifer - Introduction to the UQ Vegan Society
After this will be shout-outs, where we will rove the audience looking for anyone who has something (quick) to say.
Join us all for a social get-together at Netherworld to chat and celebrate the day. It’s 7 mins’ walk from Spring Hill Hall - Map.
