Help Us Win Funding for Aquatic Animal Welfare :peixe: :polvo: :camarão: – Vote for ALI in Project for Awesome!

We have an exciting opportunity to make a significant impact on aquatic animal welfare, and we need your support to make it happen! Aquatic Life Institute has entered the Project for Awesome election, and we’re asking for your vote to help us secure funding that will allow us to continue our critical work in advocating for the rights of aquatic animals.Why Vote for ALI?


By voting for ALI, you’re helping us bring much-needed attention to the forgotten billions—the fish, octopuses, and crustaceans who suffer silently in our food systems. Aquatic animals are often overlooked, but they are sentient beings who deserve protection from the cruelty they endure in industrial fishing and aquaculture. This funding will help us:
 

  1. Shine a light on the suffering of aquatic animals, from the farms to the fisheries, and show why they deserve the same consideration as other animals in the food system.
  2. Ban inhumane practices and prevent the expansion of cruel industries like farmed octopus, which have no place in our sustainable food future.
  3. Drive global policy change, advocating for the rights of aquatic animals and challenging industry norms to create a food system that respects all living beings, while also being more sustainable and ethical.

Thank you for being part of our journey. Let’s make this happen!

At ACE, we are committed to ensuring that every donation is put to the best possible use. As part of this commitment, we are conducting an internal assessment of our programmatic work, and we would love to hear from you. We are seeking your input to better understand how familiar the farmed animal advocacy community is with our work, how people use our work, and the positive and negative effects our charity evaluations, recommendations, and grants have on organizations and individuals working in animal advocacy. Your feedback is incredibly important in helping us improve our work. The survey will take roughly 15 minutes, and your insights will directly shape our efforts moving forward. ACCESS THE SURVEY The survey will be open until June 15th, 2025. We appreciate your time and support! The ACE team.

Hi everyone, Fórum Animal is pleased to announce that Piscicultura Água Pura/Recanto Sol Nascente has publicly committed to improving the welfare of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)! The company has reinforced its commitment in 2025 to continue implementing the following practices: ·        Daily assessment of water quality ·        Removal of predators from tanks ·        Transporting animals only in good quality water The company primarily sells live animals. However, when slaughter is necessary, the public commitment also ensures that animals will be slaughtered with adequate prior stunning methods such as electric stunning or percussive shock. Fórum Animal engaged in friendly negotiations with the company in April 2025 based on our "Guidelines for Commitment to Animal Welfare in Fish Farming". We estimate that this commitment will benefit 300,000 tilapia annually in Brazil! Check out the commitment in Portuguese [here]. We will continue negotiating fish welfare commitments with other companies to expand the positive impact on millions of lives. For the animals!
