About us

Animal Equality is an international non-profit organisation dedicated to achieving equal consideration and respect for animals and promotes a vegan lifestyle. We are currently active in the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, Venezuela and India.
 

OUR MISSION - Working for nonhuman animals

Animal Equality works to raise public awareness of the suffering and death of animals in our society. We reject all animal use, and work to show society that a real, meaningful difference is within our hands. Each of us can make influencing decisions which can literally save lives. We encourage the public to adopt a vegan lifestyle as a moral standpoint that encompasses the rejection of the use of other animals for food, entertainment, clothing, experiments o for any other purposes.

Animals share the same capacity to feel as we do, and they all deserve equal consideration of their interests. For this reason we promote animal equality and educate society to challenge discrimination such as speciesism, racism or sexism.

 
We work to obtain respect for animals by:

• Educating the public about speciesism and veganism through leafletting, information stalls, talks, workshops, vegan food tastings, media work and online advocacy.
• Investigating places of animal exploitation such as farms, slaughterhouses, circuses and zoos to expose the reality to the public.
• Carrying out open rescues from places of animal exploitation and finding long-term safe homes and sanctuaries for the rescued animals.
• Engaging in peaceful demonstrations and non-violent direct action to bring attention to the plight of animals.

Outreach Work:
Animal Equality carries out weekly demonstrations, film screenings, info-stalls, talks, workshops and educational programs in schools and Universities, which enables us to raise awareness about the use of animals in society today.

Exposing the Animal Industries:
Each time we carry out an undercover investigation into a farm or slaughterhouse, we bring to light shocking images that reveal the institutionalised suffering humans inflict on other animals. This work exposing animal industries is vital in order to show the consuming public how farmed animals are bred and killed.

Our outreach work and groundbreaking investigations have been featured in both national and international media. We aim to create a more educated and compassionate society; and make a real difference for animals exploited for human gain.
