🔴 Urgent Call for Volunteers

The International Centre for Animal Rights and Ethics (ICARE) is seeking skilled Video Editors to join our team and help transform raw video recordings of live lectures into a professional, high-quality on-demand course. This is a meaningful opportunity to contribute to advancing animal rights law education globally.

💡 What You’ll Do:

  • Edit live lecture recordings (2.5–3 hours each) to improve clarity, flow, and engagement.
  • Add captions/subtitles for accessibility and inclusivity (I'll review the transcriptions for academic/animal rights law concepts, no worries!).
  • Incorporate title cards and branding elements (logos, transitions, intro/outro slides) using ICARE’s brand guidelines (branding kit provided).
  • Enhance video/audio quality (e.g., noise reduction, sound balancing).
  • Ensure videos meet professional standards for an on-demand course.
  • Collaborate with the ICARE team via Slack, integrating feedback to maintain quality and consistency.

💼 Skills We’re Looking For:

  • Proven video editing experience (experience with educational/professional content preferred).
  • Proficiency in software like Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or similar.
  • Experience with adding captions/subtitles (knowledge of accessibility standards is a plus).
  • Familiarity with branding guidelines and consistency in application (branding kit provided).
  • Strong time-management and communication skills (being responsive and coordinating with the other video editor(s) is essential).
  • A team-oriented mindset and willingness to collaborate on ICARE’s mission.

Time Commitment:

  • Editing 8 lectures in total (divided among video editors), 2.5-3 hours each
  • Estimated 10 hours per video, depending on your pace and workload.
  • Flexibility for check-ins with the team to provide updates and integrate feedback.

What We Offer:

  • A small stipend for each completed video as recognition of your contribution.
  • An opportunity to support a groundbreaking initiative making animal rights education accessible to underrepresented communities worldwide--and to everyone, everywhere, as animal rights law is not on the academic map!
  • Your work will empower advocates, students, and professionals globally to advance animal rights through the law.
  • Experience working on a professional, high-impact project and refining your video editing skills.
  • Recognition of your contributions across ICARE’s platforms (and my eternal gratitude).

🌍 Make a Global Impact:
By joining ICARE, you’ll help create an accessible, high-quality course that equips individuals with the tools to advocate for animal rights effectively. This project directly supports those in regions where access to animal rights law education is scarce, with less financial means to access it, or simply with more constraints and for whom a self-paced learning format is ideal. You'll directly contribute to empowering animal advocates to make a difference.

📧 How to Apply:
Interested in joining us? Apply at https://www.icare-animals.org/get-involved or email us at info@icare-animals.org with:

  • Your CV.
  • A brief explanation of your interest in this role.

Hi FAST!  After decades of tireless advocacy, Sweden has become cage-free – a historic achievement for hens and for everyone who has stood by their side. Millions of hens once endured life in cramped cages, but thanks to Project 1882’s persistent, long-term efforts, there are now no hens kept in cages anywhere in Sweden.  This breakthrough is unique. To our knowledge, Sweden is the only country in the world to have gone cage-free without a legal ban. Project 1882 confirmed this shift by obtaining data from regional authorities and the egg industry.  In 1988, the Swedish Parliament voted to ban cages – but that promise to the hens was ultimately broken. In response, Project 1882 intensified its efforts: publishing detailed reports, launching repeated public awareness campaigns, holding corporate dialogues, and engaging directly with policymakers.   Thanks to these efforts, and following discussions with Project 1882, more than 85 companies –– from retailers to hotel and restaurant chains – have taken a stand against cage eggs. Since 2008, over 17 million hens have been spared a life in cages.  This success shows what persistent, collective action can achieve – even when political will falls short.  At the EU level, Project 1882 also collected 50,000 signatures for the End the Cage Age initiative, pushing for a ban across the EU. With delays pushing the proposal to 2026, Project 1882 is now urging Sweden to take the final step: A legal ban on cages, to ensure they never return.  Read more: https://www.project1882.org/news/sweden-becomes-cage-free

Each year, Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE) invites animal charities from around the world to apply for our in-depth evaluations. Our goal is to identify the most impactful giving opportunities for donors seeking to contribute to a world where all animals can flourish. We are thrilled to announce that 10 charities have been selected for this year’s charity evaluations, based on their excellent applications and the highly promising nature of their work. Among these are six current Recommended Charities that are being re-evaluated before their two-year recommendation status expires: Faunalytics, Legal Impact for Chickens, New Roots Institute, Shrimp Welfare Project, The Humane League, and Wild Animal Initiative. On November 4, 2025, some of this year’s evaluated charities will be awarded ACE’s two-year recommendation status, joining the five charities recommended in 2024: Aquatic Life Institute, Çiftlik Hayvanlarını Koruma Derneği, Dansk Vegetarisk Forening, Good Food Fund, and Sinergia Animal. All charities evaluated by ACE have undergone a thorough selection process and have demonstrated significant potential in running cost-effective programs and engaging in impactful work. Even those that are not ultimately recommended are likely among the most effective in their respective fields. Below, we give an overview of our selection process and introduce the 10 charities that successfully reached the evaluation stage in 2025. Our Selection Process Our selection process is an initial assessment of applicants’ programs, with a focus on their theory of change and the scale of their impact for animals. The process is designed to ensure that we dedicate our resources to evaluating organizations with strong potential to be among the most impactful giving opportunities in the world.
