Hi everyone! As the Policy Advisor, you will be accountable for conducting state and local-level policy research, supporting the coordination of member groups on impactful public policy campaigns and lobbying strategies at the state and local levels, and interfacing with animal protection groups regarding research needs. Because the APA is a relatively new program and the Public Policy team is small, this role requires a high level of flexibility and comfort with change and uncertainty. 

The priority deadline is Tuesday, February 25, 2025, and the salary for this role is $80,392-$98,257.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

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.
