'One Health Ethics': A critical examination of the use, regulation and prohibition of animals as medicines in complementary and traditional medicinal systems

在澳大利亚，传统、补充和替代药物（TCAM）的使用正在增加，包括鲨鱼软骨等动物疗法，尽管其利弊存在争议。这项研究旨在与社区和利益相关者合作，以更好地了解澳大利亚如何以及为什么将动物用作治疗方法。这项研究将为防止在TCAM中使用动物提供更多的横向方法，或者至少确保它们的使用是可持续的和道德上可接受的。

Use of traditional, complementary and alternative medicines (TCAM), including animal therapies such as shark cartilage, is growing in Australia despite controversy over its benefits and harms. This research seeks to engage with communities and stakeholders to better understand how and why animals are used as therapies in Australia. The research will inform a more lateral approach to preventing the use of animals in TCAM or at the very least ensuring that their use is sustainable and ethically acceptable.
