This is a kind of follow on from the looooooooong threads on the Irish race horse debacle and modern pentathlon ..
It's something I have seen partially articulated on these and other threads.. so I was really interested when I saw the recording of this webinar discussing Social Licence to Operate ..
Some of the points which particulary piqued me..
We need to be clear about the difference between Care and Welfare .. An owner can invest heavily in care but this is very differnt from Welfare..
The Levels of Social Licence .. equestrian sport (from happy hacking to racing) .. largely I think we are in the amber region .. one step away from outright opposition
I found a recording of Roly Owers presentation to the FEI refered to
which is also a really interesting watch .. and his slides

and the paper on the 5 domains model https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2615/10/10/1870
