Passionately carving an unlikely legal career - Animal Law lawyer | Rebeka Breder | TEDxSFU

Do animals have a voice in court? Do animals have any rights in our legal system? Rebeka will reflect on her lifelong journey on becoming an animal law lawyer. A legal field that was barely known until only recently. She will explore some of the institutional, societal, and personal barriers she has faced while trying to give a voice to beings not yet fully recognized in our legal system. Rebeka hopes her talk will encourage others to never give up on developing a career that is true to one’s passion. Rebeka Breder is an Animal Law lawyer, who has always been deeply passionate about fighting for nonhuman animals in and out of court. Her unique legal career is devoted exclusively to animal law. Rebeka takes on only those cases that can help individual animals or can set positive legal precedents. Rebeka was awarded by her peers as one of Canada’s “Top 25 Most Influential” lawyers and one of the “Best Lawyers” (Canada). She has also taught animal law as an adjunct professor in law schools, and she is a regular media commentator. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
