My name is María Francisca Tapia (Franny), and I work as Intercontinental and Research Coordinator at LatinGroup for Animals. LatinGroup for Animals is an NGO dedicated to creating meaningful legislative change for animal welfare in Latin America by uniting the efforts of more than 40 associate organizations across the region.
On a personal note, I recently moved to Paris in December, where I’m currently based. I’m really looking forward to getting to know like-minded, curious people working on ethical and high-impact issues.
My main interests lie in Animal Rights and animal welfare, as well as the ethical frameworks that underpin them, Animal Law, public policy, and legislative advocacy. More broadly, I’m deeply interested in ethical questions around AI governance and regulation, global warming, social equity, women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, veganism, and how to generate meaningful, systemic change in these areas.
I’m seeking collaboration in:
International cooperation and coalition-building between Latin America and other regions, academic research, development of comparative studies focused on the Latin American context.
I can help community members with:
Connecting with organizations in Latin America, supporting intercontinental collaboration and information-sharing, and contributing through research, teaching, and knowledge exchange in animal law and ethics.
Thank you so much, Toby! I’ve been trying to understand how everything works so far, and I think it’s pretty clear at the moment. I’m really happy to have found this place!
