Incorporating consideration of the ways in which the law impacts animals into the human rights curriculum. Not only did this enable students to gain exposure to the area of animal law, which is not taught at Deakin, but it also encouraged students to think critically about the meaning and purpose of legal rights more broadly.
I am enough.
