Peruvian lecture tour in August

In August I was invited by Peruvian organisation UPA to deliver a lecture tour on humane teaching methods, animal experimentation, the animal welfare standards of veterinarians, and other animal protection topics. They worked me hard – I delivered 20 main presentations primarily at four conferences, participated in eight veterinary and medical school meetings with faculty members, four alternatives exhibitions, and five press conferences and media interviews. However, they also fed me well, and gave me a little time off to explore the Andes (see pics). Don't miss the published story of this adventure! I'm grateful to Swiss organization AG STG for sponsoring the tour, and to InterNICHE for supplying the alternatives.

    Exciting developments are happening in this field, including the creation of several recent veterinary organisations dedicated to animal protection or ethics, such as Sentient - the Veterinary Institute for Animal Ethics, in Australia.
    This time we had simultaneous translation between English and Spanish. It worked surprisingly well. These were our wonderful translators.
    UPA distributed CDs containing all of my powerpoint presentations, as well as Spanish translations of a couple of my articles (on humane teaching methods and the animal welfare standards of vets), and some educational computer simulations of animal experiments.
