Hi FAST!

I'm glad to make my first post in this community to share about our European tour that Project 1882 is currently out on. As you all know, the upcoming years carry immense importance for the billions of animals within Europe’s factory farms. Therefore, Project 1882 is taking action this summer by raising awareness among both EU citizens and policymakers with our mobile exhibition "For the Animals – Euro Tour 2024".

The exhibition offers interactive experiences such as VR as well as informational videos and facts describing the conditions of animals on factory farms. In addition to learning more about factory farms, visitors will gain insight into the challenges animals face and the opportunities for change. By taking the mobile exhibition directly to EU citizens, Project 1882 hopes to engage and educate the public and influence decision-makers to prioritize animal rights and improve animal welfare legislation in the EU.

Project 1882 conducts the tour together with the national organizations of the countries we visit. So far we have visited the following cities: Helsinki, Tallinn, Riga, Vilnius, Warsaw, Berlin and are currently in Bratislava. The tour has attracted over 2000 visitors and has also received a lot of attention in the national media.

After Bratislava, the journey continues to Prague, Ljubljana and Budapest before a short break and then on to Spain, Portugal and Italy.

Until next time, I wish you all a great summer!

Hello Fast! This year, the new aquaculture law will begin to be created, and we have launched several campaigns to raise awareness about marine animals and bring them closer to the public. One of these is our Save the Lobsters (Salvemos a las Langostas) campaign. A major Chilean supermarket (with locations in several Latin American countries) displays lobsters for sale in small aquariums that violate basic animal welfare standards and, furthermore, lack an internal protocol for their sale. In response, we have taken various actions, one of which is to alert the public. We have created a website to raise awareness about the situation, recently launched a petition for signatures, and as a result of our efforts, the Colegio Médico Veterinario de Chile (Chilean Veterinary Medical Association) has issued a statement supporting the view that invertebrates are sentient beings! This is very encouraging for us, as this is a highly respected professional body in Chile. We invite you to learn more about our campaign and reach out to us for any feedback you may have. We would be happy to hear from you.   Best regards, Marysabel Pavez Director Fundación Derecho y Defensa Animal (DyDAnimal Chile) marysabel@dydanimal.com

Hi FAST!  The fight against fur farming in Sweden has taken yet another step forward.  This past week, the Swedish government has officially launched an inquiry into how a fur farming ban can be implemented. This follows a commitment made in 2023 and is the result of over 50 years of advocacy by Project 1882.  Last year, the government pledged to phase out mink farms and explore a full ban on fur farming. To support this transition, financial aid was introduced earlier this year to help farmers shut down their operations. Now, with this inquiry in motion, Sweden is closer than ever to ending fur farming for good. A legal ban is essential to ensure fur farming never returns.  The inquiry will outline how the ban will be enforced, with “animal ethics discussions” cited as a reason for moving forward. With the last mink farms expected to close to qualify for the government’s decommissioning support of 180 million SEK, industry resistance is fading, making a ban easier to implement.  Now, Project 1882 is urging the Swedish government to move forward with the inquiry without delay and to push for an EU-wide ban in line with the Fur Free Europe citizens’ initiative.  Read more here: https://www.project1882.org/news/major-victory-sweden-moves-closer-ban-fur-farming

Animal Outlook has launched its first Behavior Change and Volunteer Impact report, showing the results of programs that aim to influence lasting behavior change. Produced in collaboration with User-Friendly, the report documents some of the ways we can create measurable progress in shifting public attitudes and behaviors towards vegan eating. The report also shows the impact of volunteers in helping to maximize efforts in the animal protection movement. Last year, Animal Outlook volunteers completed almost 6,000 hours of work for animals.
