About the presentation
Case study: how first Ukrainian investigation made foie-gras nationwide ban possible
Abstract: In March 2019, Open Cages Ukraine released the first-ever investigation into Ukrainian factory farms shedding light onto the foie gras production in the country. Lisa will talk about how primarily local media campaign transformed into an international media campaign that caused legal changes in New York State and corporate changes in the UK, Denmark, and Ukraine. And how less than in a year it became a severe legal campaign to ban foie-gras sales and production in Ukraine.
