100 Animal Welfare in Veterinary Education #1: International Student Insights into Curricula, Animal Usage, and Didactic Alternatives
2026-09-16 | 34 min.Today we are exchanging thoughts with the International Veterinary Students´ Association (IVSA) about the meaning and implementation of animal welfare in veterinary education around the globe.
To gain international insights, we were able to speak with five regional representatives in the following roles: Tamy Negrón (President, Peru), Prothoma Kalidaha (Chair of Standing Committee on Animal Welfare, India), Asampana Kofi Engbme Maxwell (External Relations Manager, Ghana), Felix Metzger (IVSA Trust, Germany), and Monia El Madidi (Research and Data Analyst, Morocco) (at the time of interview recording in the first half of 2026).
In this first of several episodes, we introduce ourselves and learn more about the IVSA with its opportunities and ways to get involved. To lay the foundation for deeper conversations, we also discuss what animal welfare means to each of us.
Listen in and get to know the IVSA – maybe you want to get active yourself, join a present chamber, or start one at your university to give yourself and your fellow students a voice for curriculum optimization, compliance with animal welfare, and the future of the veterinary profession.

Was soll so ein „Führerschein“ für Hundehalter bringen – und kann er tatsächlich dazu beitragen, dass Mensch und Hund sicherer und besser miteinander durchs Leben kommen?
Wir schauen uns an, wo Hundeführerscheine sinnvoll sein können, wo ihre Grenzen liegen und warum Wissen über Hundehaltung eigentlich viel früher anfangen sollte als beim ersten Spaziergang mit Leine.
Denn klar ist: Einen Hund zu halten bedeutet mehr, als nur Gassi zu gehen und Leckerlis zu verteilen. Gleichzeitig ist ein verpflichtender Nachweis von Sachkunde auch kein Allheilmittel für jedes Problem.
Warum wir Führerscheine und Sachkundenachweise für die Tierhaltung grundsätzlich sinnvoll finden, welche Fragen dabei offenbleiben und ob am Ende wirklich jeder Mensch vor der Hundehaltung noch einmal „zur Prüfung“ sollte – darüber sprechen wir in dieser Folge von DareToCare.
Also: Pfote aufs Pedal und los geht’s! - Fish are the most numerous animals farmed for food—yet their welfare is often overlooked.
In this episode we are joined by Wasseem Emam, Founder and Director of Ethical Seafood Research, an applied researchorganisation dedicated to improving the welfare of animals in aquatic food systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
Together, we explore what animal welfare means beneath the water's surface, why fish deserve greater attention in welfare discussions, and how research can help improve aquaculturepractices around the world. From species-specific needs and welfare assessment to the ethical questions surrounding seafood production, this episode highlights both the challenges and the opportunities for creating more compassionate aquatic food systems.
Can seafood ever truly be ethical? Tune in as we dive into one of the most overlooked areas of animal welfare.

FOLLOW US ON SOCIALS - Instagram: @daretocare_podcast - Can children change the future of animal welfare?
In this episode of DareToCare, we travel to the University ofVeterinary Medicine Budapest, where an inspiring initiative is bringing animal welfare education directly into primary schools. By teaching children how to understand, respect, and care for animals from an early age, the program aims to foster empathy, responsible behaviour, and a lifelong commitment to animal welfare.
We explore why animal welfare education matters long before people become adults, how complex topics such as animal needs and ethics can be made accessible to younglearners, and what interactive teaching methods help children connect with these ideas.
From memorable classroom moments to the challenges of developing educational materials for young audiences, this conversation highlights the power of education as a tool for creating a more compassionate society.
Could animal welfare one day become a standard part of primary school education?
Join us as we explore how small hands can make a big difference for animals.

FOLLOW US ON SOCIALS - Instagram: @daretocare_podcast - Die Veröffentlichung von Aufnahmen aus einem Schweineschlachthof durch die Tierschutzaktivistin Anna Schubert hat eine intensive Debatte über die CO₂-Betäubung von Schweinen ausgelöst. Während die Bilder viele Menschen erschüttern, steht gleichzeitig der Schlachthof mit einer Klage gegen die Aktivistin im Fokus der Öffentlichkeit.
In dieser Folge sprechen wir über den Fall und ordnen ihn aus unserer Perspektive ein. Dabei diskutieren wir auch die schwierigen Zielkonflikte, die in der Bewertung von Betäubungsverfahren entstehen. Ist die CO₂-Betäubung tierschutzgerecht? Welche Alternativen gibt es – und welche Herausforderungen bringen sie mit sich? Warum ist die Kritik an bestehenden Verfahren wichtig, ohne dabei die Komplexität der Schlachtpraxis aus den Augen zu verlieren?
Eine Folge über Aktivismus, Tierwohl, Legalität und die Frage, wie eine sachliche Debatte in einem emotional aufgeladenen Thema gelingen kann.
