The second edition of the Animal Liberation Gathering is coming up! 

Last year we received so much positive feedback that we had no choice but to organize the Animal Liberation Gathering again this year. 

This year it's going to be another long weekend packed with workshops, lectures, community, stands from various organizations, vegan food and rest. Will you join us? 

The program
Soon we will start to announce the speakers. For that, keep an eye on this event and our pages.  

 Would you like to give a talk yourself or be a part of the program in any other way? Then get in touch via the form on the website.  

Date
 You are welcome from Thursday, August 7 to pitch your tent, explore the grounds and catch up. By then there will be dinner and an evening program.
Friday and Saturday there is going to be a full program. Sunday there will be a joint big protest organised by several organizations. We will arrange transportation from the campground. 

Location
The Gathering will be held at the activist campsite Tot Vrijheidsbezinning, located right on the Drents-Friese Wold. How to get there can be found on the event website.

I hope to see you there! 

More workshops added. Direct Action Workgame, Workshop Compassion for Activists and more. 

We still have openings in the program and are looking for activists and organisations to join and share their practical knowledge about activism with other activists.

Hi all! We’re happy to share that Super Festval, a supermarket brand part of Grupo Beal (former “Companhia Beal de Alimentos’), has officially published a commitment to exclusively source pork from group housing systems during gestation in Brazil by 2028, considering preferably preimplantation systems where sows are housed in stalls for no longer than 7 days. You can read the announcement in Portuguese on the company website here. Super Festval is a traditional family business with a local well-known brand and 39 stores in the state of Paraná, south of Brazil. The organizations Alianima, Fórum Animal, Humane World for Animals and Sinergia Animal engaged in corporate relationship with the company for 5 years of negotiations, combining strategies of friendly negotiation, technical support and public campaign warning to accelerate the commitment. The negotiations were positively influenced by the fact that Super Festval has a cage-free commitment fulfilled in 2024 (see their report to the Egglab audit). This is a successful case to strengthen animal welfare policies negotiations with retailers in Brazil. At the moment, it's important to increase the number of animal welfare policies implemented in Brazilian retail in order to promote progress in this sector that is traditionally less receptive to animal welfare policies. We will continue monitoring the implementation of Super Festval commitment, encouraging the company to report their evolution annually, asking to participate in Alianima’s Pig Watch report and extending its animal welfare policies to additional species, for example nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus).

Iceland Foods committed to eliminating eyestalk ablation and implementing pre-slaughter electric stunning across their own-label prawn range by the end of 2027. ICAW has been running a campaign against Iceland for several months inclusive of digital actions, in-person demonstrations (including 70 people gathering in London in May) and other pressure tactics. Only 3 retailers have yet to commit to higher prawn welfare in the UK: Aldi, LIDL and ASDA. Thank you to everyone involved for supporting our campaign!
