Today’s talk is about the growing animal advocacy movement in Africa! I was honored to speak with Aurelia Adhiambo about the challenges posed by industrialization and factory farming and how they differ from country to country.

She represents Africa in many animal welfare conversations from Open Wing Alliance and The Humane League to the Effective Altruism Animal Welfare Fund and the Animal & Vegan Advocacy Africa Summit.

She’s a wealth of knowledge! I think you’ll enjoy learning a bit about animal advocacy in Africa right now.

Join me with Heidi Marquez-Caguioa in Capas, Philippines for another episode in our Animal Advocacy Around the World Series.

Heidi works with Animal Kingdom Foundation (AKF), a Philippines-based non-profit that is heavily involved in ending the dog meat trade. They provide shelter for animals rescued from the dog meat trade and speak out against cruelty to all animals, especially dogs, cats, farm animals, and fish by working to develop legislation that protects them.

We discuss the work of AKF, how they made a huge difference in the dog meat trade, and how they have evolved to influence sustainable changes in animal welfare in the Philippines.

Join me with Maho Uehara in Tokyo, Japan for the first episode of our new Animal Advocacy Around the World Series. Maho works with Animal Welfare Corporate Partners Japan (AWCP), a Japan-based non-profit organization that helps and supports corporations and producers who are changing the egg supply chain to cage-free eggs.

We discuss the work of AWCP, how animal welfare ranks as a priority in Japan, how long organizations have been working to help animals, and how things look for farm animals, companion animals, and wildlife in this country.
