Mission and programs · 2024

Mission

Animal and Vegan Advocacy International, Inc. is dedicated to creating a world in which animals are removed from the food system and other human uses. It furthers this mission by convening advocates through an international conference series and engaging in charitable, educational, and scientific activities consistent with its exempt purpose.

  • In 2024, AVA International significantly expanded its global impact by organizing three major conferences in the United States, Vietnam, and Brazil-bringing together thousands of professionals and thought leaders in the animal protection movement. Each event served as a critical platform for knowledge exchange, strategic collaboration, and the promotion of effective, culturally relevant approaches to animal advocacy. By hosting these conferences across diverse regions, AVA strengthened its commitment to building a truly international movement, fostering cross-border partnerships, and supporting organizations in amplifying their impact. The 2024 conference series underscored AVA's role as a convener and catalyst for progress in animal protection worldwide.
