Voices from CARE

It's by far my favourite conference in the world

Aaron Ross

Fortify Negotiations

This is one of my favourite conferences because it has relaxed vibes and everyone feels welcome. It feels like a gathering of friends. The team makes a huge effort to make it a good use of time for all attendees and focus the conference on the topics that matter most for farmed and wild animals.

Sofia Balderson

Hive

For us, activists from Central Asia, CARE is a great opportunity to feel part of the global animal advocacy movement, to synchronise with it, and to learn from our different circumstances.

Aliya Wedelich

ÖmirFest/ÖmirConf

Conferences like CARE are absolutely essential in order to build an impactful and strong movement, both in Europe and globally.

Kirsty Henderson

Anima International

I think it's really important that we get together to share ideas, learn from each other, challenge each other too.

Mahi Klosterhalfen

Albert Schweitzer Foundation

Whether it's your first time or you're a seasoned conference-attender, CARE is always a super-inspiring event that brings you new knowledge and ideas, helps recharge your batteries, and connects you to the kind of people you'd want to reboot civilization with in case everything falls apart.

Tobias Leenaert

Proveg International

This conference is great for the movement. It's great for building mobilization and building support among advocates.

Olga Kikou

Animal Advocacy & Food Transition

This conference can help us achieve building capacity to win for animals.

Rachel Atcheson

Food Policy Pathways

Hope to see you at CARE!
