Animal Ask is thrilled to announce we’re opening a new application round seeking partnerships with animal advocacy organisations around the world.

Overview

This is an excellent opportunity for organisations that could benefit from dedicated research from our team on any aspect of your animal advocacy work —whether which campaign to choose, or specific research questions you have within your campaigns—.

The deadline for applications is June 3, 2024. If in doubt, we encourage you to err on the side of applying! You can apply by filling out this form.

Thanks to our generous donors we can offer our services to the movement largely pro-bono, particularly for promising organizations that may otherwise not have the resources to conduct such vital research. 

What does partnership with Animal Ask look like?

We offer two different services to animal advocacy groups: Ask Prioritisation Program and Ask Consultation Program.

During the duration of both programmes, we also engage with groups by sharing an informative collaboration package, facilitating spaces for discussion, and presenting our final findings in a customised manner.

What kind of outcome should groups expect from each of those programmes?

Our Ask Prioritisation Program helps identify the most impactful campaign opportunities available to organisations working to improve the lives of animals in their region. The outcome of the research program will see Animal Ask recommend several top-tier asks are likely to have the highest expected impact based on our research. As well as potentially some smaller and tractable campaigns targeting existing policy windows. See an example of our past work on behalf of Dyrenes Alliance here.

Our Ask Consultation Program covers requests that do not warrant the full Ask Prioritisation Programme. This could be:

For more general information about our available programs please see our website, or feel free to book a call with me (@José Ramón Mallén) to discuss whether or how we might be able to help inform or bolster your campaign efforts. For specific, more technical information, feel free to book a call with our Head of Research and Co-founder, @George Bridgwater .

Remember! The deadline for applications is June 3, 2024. Apply here.

Hello FAST members! I am bringing you the 2024 results of our project "Reducing Anemia with Plant-Based Iron." Once again, the results are excellent. We are starting work with new schools in 2025. Project description and results: Anemia is a common disease in Peru, especially among children and women of reproductive age. Iron deficiency anemia is characterized by a lack of iron in the blood, which causes a reduction in the number of red blood cells and, therefore, a decrease in the body's ability to transport oxygen from the lungs to the various organs and tissues. In Peru, anemia is primarily due to a diet deficient in iron-rich foods and a lack of access to quality health services, which leads to infections that inhibit the absorption of this nutrient. Many people, especially in very low-income rural areas, do not have access to iron-rich foods or lack knowledge on the subject. Furthermore, access to quality health services is limited, making the diagnosis and treatment of anemia difficult. According to the Peruvian Ministry of Health, 49% of children under 5 years of age living in rural areas suffer from anemia. In urban areas, the percentage is 37%. Furthermore, 57% of women of reproductive age also suffer from this disease. To address the problem of anemia, ARBA has created a program called "Reducing Anemia with Plant-Based Iron." Through in-person and virtual workshops, it teaches parents where to obtain iron from plant-based foods and helps prevent anemia in their children. Through partnerships with schools, our team, with the consent of parents and teachers, takes blood samples from children between 4 and 12 years of age in two stages (before and after parent training). The results of these analyses are revealing and show a clear and severe iron deficiency in many children. In the two years that ARBA has been carrying out this intervention in schools, incredible results have been obtained, demonstrating that anemia can be overcome with proper nutriti
