For more than 30 years, Humane World for Animals—formerly called Humane Society International—has worked around the globe to tackle the root causes of animal cruelty and suffering to create permanent change. Driving toward the greatest global impact, we aim to achieve the vision behind our name: a more humane world.
With millions of supporters worldwide and work happening in more than 50 countries, we address the most deeply entrenched forms of animal cruelty and suffering, by working on the biggest problems and creating long-term solutions for lasting change.
We tackle the root causes of animal cruelty by shifting human behaviour and advocating for policy change, making change at scale.
We work across borders, bringing diverse expertise to the most complex issues, and doing it all with a compassionate and welcoming approach.
As the leading voice in the animal protection space, we work to end the cruellest practices, care for animals in crisis and build a stronger animal protection movement.
