Programs
2 programs
Transfarmation. Our mission is to build collective power sufficient to realize a just and sustainable food system. Transfarmation does this by helping farmers transition from industrial animal agriculture operations to raising crops for human consumption. By creating models of alternative economic opportunities, building solidarity with other movements, and shifting societal narratives to change culture, we will realize a just and sustainable food system.
Investigations show the harsh realities of the treatment of farmed animals. Our investigations land coverage in media, and can help lead to major changes in the animal agricultural system and public perception to further action for animal welfare and protection of farmed animals.
