The animal welfare profession has made meaningful progress toward diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)—but real transformation requires going further. To create lasting change, we must look beyond DEI initiatives and examine the deeper systemic barriers that shape who has access to animal care, services, and leadership opportunities.

As a follow-up to our Justice in Action: Moving Beyond DEI in Animal Welfare webinar (October 21, 2025), this interactive roundtable invites participants to explore what justice in action looks like in practice. You’ll hear from peers and panelists who are embedding justice into their organizations’ everyday work—sharing candid insights, challenges, and strategies along the way.

Whether you lead an organization, manage teams, or work directly with communities, this discussion will provide a space to exchange ideas, spark collaboration, and co-create approaches to advancing justice across our field.

Participants will:

• Discuss what “justice in action” looks like in practice 
• Explore examples of justice in action in the workplace 
• Share strategies to incorporate justice in action into organizational culture

Panel TBA

• Jasmin Robinson, Director of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Initiatives, The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement
