Description

What’s the difference between, you, me and the next person? The answer that question could be a few things but class in society isn’t one of them.  Our guest today is an utter saint of this sector…and literally and OBE (as of this week).  Navaratnam Partheeban, or Theeb is a vet…by the way listen to the name change tradition in Theeb’s culture (Tamil), it’s really cool and also leads to a lovely lineage! Sorry, he’s a vet…he’s a Nuffield scholar, he’s an OBE, he’s a lecturer but there’s still something even more impressive about this man.Partheeban was victim of negative racial comments from a client before said client was sided with by his manager and he knew it was time to leave and also change the industry from within which he has done.Co-founder of the British Veterinary Ethnicity and Diversity Society, a Nuffield scholarship carried out researching diversity in the sector and a new curriculum about to get read out through all vet and agriculture institutions it’s fair to say this man, unlike some is completely deserving of that OBE title. A chat with a gentleman changing the world one step at a time.Thanks to Howden Rural and Scottish farmer for their countries support! Enjoy Hosted on Acast.
