About this listen
The Brambell Committee reviewed farm animal welfare, set practical rules (minimum cage sizes, pen space, companionship, food and water) and recommended a statutory advisory body.
The Committee’s work led to the Farm Animal Advisory Committee and the formal adoption of the Five Freedoms—freedom from hunger and thirst; discomfort; pain, injury or disease; to express normal behaviour; and from fear and distress—which became the basis for animal welfare laws worldwide.
Animal Rights Tour is written by Sean Butler, hosted by Carly McCann, and fact-checked by Paulina Siemieniec.
This podcast is produced by the Cambridge Centre for Animal Rights Law, an academic centre of competence dedicated to the study of fundamental rights for non-human animals. Learn more about the Centre at animalrightslaw.org.
