The upcoming years carry immense importance for the billions of animals confined within Europe’s factory farms. With the European tour “For the Animals”, Project 1882 aims to shed light on the situation of these animals and raise awareness among both EU citizens and policymakers.
Since 1882, Project 1882 has been working to make a difference for the animals that are the most exploited and suffer the worst. With “For the Animals”, we are taking the next step forward to elevate animal rights issues higher on the EU Commission’s agenda.
Amid ongoing discussions within the EU about animal welfare and imminent decisions that will directly affect their treatment, Project 1882 is dedicated to raising awareness about the real conditions animals face. With “For the Animals”, we are journeying across the roads of Europe, allowing citizens to witness firsthand how animals are treated on factory farms and why the promised revised animal welfare legislation in the EU needs to be put in place as soon as possible.
With "For the Animals", Project 1882 wants to carry out advocacy work around Europe's big cities and create a bridge between the situation of animals, the public and the decision-makers. A unique feature of Project 1882's tour is our accompanying mobile exhibition, where we offer visitors informative, knowledge-building and engaging activities about animal rights and animal welfare.
The mobile event is a meeting place in large European cities, where both the public and elected officials have the opportunity to meet, share information and discuss current solutions to address the problems that exist.
The mobile exhibition will offer interactive experiences and informational materials detailing the conditions of animals in factory farms. Visitors will also gain insight into the challenges facing animals and the opportunities for change. By taking the mobile exhibition directly to EU citizens, Project 1882 hopes to engage and educate the public, as well as influence decision-makers to prioritize animal rights and improve legislation.
Billions of animals suffer yearly in horrific animal factories across Europe, where they are subjected to systematic animal cruelty. Many of Europe's animals completely lack a law that protects them. In recent years, the deficient animal welfare has been noticed by the European Commission, but few proposals have been made for changes or improvements for the animals. Project 1882 sees great value in acting now, when time is running out for Europe's animals.
Below you can see which cities Project 1882 visited during the summer and autumn of 2024.
Time is running out for Europe’s animals. Make sure that the European Commission upholds their commitments to animal welfare.
