Animal Advocacy & Food Transition (AAFT) is a non-profit organization working at the European level to end the systemic exploitation of farmed animals and challenge the industrial food system that enables it
We believe that animal suffering must not be managed or minimized – it must be ended. No animal should be confined, mutilated, or transported for days.
We fight for a world where animals can live fully and express joy, comfort, curiosity, and play, as all animals naturally do.
Sentient beings deserve the chance to thrive.
