Marcus Vinicius Neves

Recognizing the limited scope of legal rights currently in place, Marcus is dedicated to bridging the gap between scientific understanding of animal sentience and the lack of legal recognition for non-human beings. Through his project, Marcus conducts in-depth legal research and leads awareness campaigns to advocate for legal reforms that will ensure the rights and protections of all living beings. Despite the perceived disconnect between ethical premises of rights and the current status quo, Marcus remains committed to making a difference in his local community. While the impact of his project may be indirect, it is undeniably meaningful. By raising awareness of animal sentience, Marcus aims to spark local discussions and inspire actions that promote greater empathy and ethical treatment of all living beings in his community and beyond.
