Championing Horse Welfare in High-Level Competition! (Caroline Hegarty, English)

🎙️ Better Horse Welfare in High-Level Competition

In this episode, I’m joined by Caroline Hegarty, CEO of Equitopia Center – a passionate advocate for horse welfare and a powerful voice in the equestrian world. Caroline shares her deep concern about the treatment of horses in the highest levels of competition, where performance often takes precedence over the horse’s well-being. With Equitopia Center, she has created an educational platform that brings together international experts from various disciplines – all working towards one goal: to improve the way we care for and understand our horses. Together, we dive into: The challenges horses face in elite equestrian sports What science and ethics tell us about horse welfare How Equitopia is building bridges between tradition and evidence-based practice Why we must rethink how we define success with our horses Whether you're a competitive rider, a horse owner, or simply passionate about equine welfare, this is a conversation that will inspire and inform.

🐴 Let’s create a better world for horses – one conversation at a time.
