Thanks for the question! We do not view our work as necessarily focused on the West. To the extent our work so far has focused on such countries, it’s because that’s where we think our comparative advantage currently has centered but as our team learns, and possibly grows, this won’t necessarily hold over time.
I plan to contact people in Asia and talk to them about research priorities and other things after I finish my current project. I already began collecting some contacts.
Do you see your animal welfare work as mostly focused on the West? Do you have any plans to look at emerging economies and non-Western countries?
