Persistence and reversibility of wild animal welfare interventions

June 30, 2020

From the organizers of EAGxVirtual 2020:

"When we try to improve wild animal welfare, we want the effects of our efforts to persist long into the future, rather than to wash out. However, we also want to maintain the ability to undo our actions if they turn out to be harmful. In this talk, Simon Liedholm of Wild Animal Initiative outlines how we can optimize these two objectives, and apply the framework to some specific examples.”
