Mahi Klosterhalfen on progressive strategies for animals in Germany and the importance of sharing mistakes

Mahi Klosterhalfen from Albert Schweitzer Foundation brings us exciting progress for animals in Germany. Mahi walks us through his work on cage-free, broilers and also now fish and shrimps and why Germany seems to be one of very few countries where meat consumption per capita is declining. We also dive into some thought provoking questions around running an organisation and why as a movement leader, sharing of mistakes is so important. Super interesting chat from a really knowledgeable long-term member of this space - well worth a listen. Relevant links to things mentioned throughout the show:Podcast: Feedback FormFundamental Wellbeing Foundation 45 Days to AwakeningFreeleticsAlbert Schweitzer Stiftung SiteWebsite in EnglishJosh Balk episode on shareholder advocacy The Leadership Exchange - Liana Paris LinkedInLidl lowering the cost of plant-based products Declining meat consumption in Germany Agency vs scarcity article Radical Candour book Animal Welfare League post on FAST ForumAVA Summit Talk (not yet live but will be hosted here)00:00:00:00 | Intro00:08:09:13 | Progress with retailers and producers00:17:47:13 | Lower welfare fresh meat by 2030.00:24:42:09 | Results of legal actions by the Foundation00:42:26:01 | Meat tax that might finance animal welfare improvements00:50:05:11 | Public opinion of animal welfare in Germany00:57:47:11 | Future plans and campaigns00:59:07:17 | Mistakes that Leaders make01:11:17:02 | How to be a better Leader?01:16:26:02 | Closing questionsWith thanks to Tom Felbar (Ambedo Media) for amazing video and audio editing!Note: My (James') views here are my personal opinions and don't represent those of Coefficient Giving.If you enjoy the show, please leave a rating and review us - it means a lot to us!
