3. Target Setting

Although it is probably too early to set concrete dates for specific targets, it is nevertheless important to define targets. Some goals, such as the abolition of factory farming, are already in the political debate. A kind of vision for a period of about 50 years would be helpful to turn people towards a common goal. Also the definition of intermediate targets is essential: For instance it is conceivable to expand animal rights gradually to different animal groups, e.g. citizenship for dogs and cats rights would most likely be easier accepted than for other domesticated animals like pigs and cows; similarly, sovereign rights for bears may be enforced comparatively easier than denizen rights for rats.

Any ideas are welcome!
