The National Animal Rights Day (NARD) is an annual day observed in more than 50 countries and around 150 cities around the world. It always takes place on the first Sunday of June and aims to give a voice to all animals and raise awareness for their rights. It is a combined "Memorial Day" and "Independence Day" for animals. On this day, special NARD events are held in major cities in each country, to Commemorate the billions of animals who die every year by human hands, Educate the public about the current treatment of animals and the alternatives to it, and Celebrate the progress that is being made every year towards ending the suffering of animals. These events also bring the local animal rights communities together and allow people to mourn together, celebrate together, and empower each other to keep on fighting for animals. You want to become a NARD Organizer? Reach out to vanille@ourplanettheirstoo.org or yasmin@ourplanettheirstoo.org  and you'll receive everything you need to get started.

Cities across Europe are stepping up for climate, health, and animal protection. Alcorcón, El Masnou, and Parla in Spain, Grenoble in France, and Campolide in Portugal have recently endorsed the call for a global Plant Based Treaty to cut food emissions in line with the Paris Agreement. Their commitments include: * Piloting plant-based meals in public dining halls and city facilities, and banning land use changes for animal agriculture (Alcorcón) * Requiring at least 50% plant-based catering at municipal events (El Masnou) * Prioritizing plant-based food in public procurement and developing a local sustainable food strategy, including plant-based menus in school cafeterias, day centres and residencies (Parla) * Increasing plant-based options in canteens and at events, and promoting initiatives such as Veganuary (Grenoble) * Organizing community-based plant-based cooking workshops and running educational programs in schools to raise awareness of food system impacts and encourage dietary shifts (Campolide)   To date, 45 cities globally have endorsed the Plant Based Treaty, and with your support, our teams are transforming food policy one city at a time as we build momentum to secure our first country endorsement.
