Animal Activism Collective (AAC) is dedicated to equipping aspiring activists with the skills, knowledge, experience, and community support, necessary to effectively fight for animals. We support and guide both new and experienced activists in discovering their strengths, fostering enduring and effective activism, and creating meaningful advancements for animal rights.
AAC's long-term vision is of an empowered, diverse, and sustained movement of animal rights advocates. We envision an animal rights community that is large in numbers, well-educated, strategically mobilized, deeply connected with other activists around the world, and who are capable of taking bold action and calculated risks that make a quantifiable impact for animals.
AAC values diversity of tactics in effective, impactful activism. We recognize the importance of activist education and aim to be a top contributor of free educational resources to the animal rights community. AAC understands the importance of making activism and community accessible for everyone who wants to advocate for animals. This is why we have never charged for any of our resources or events, including our multi-day convergences. During our in-person activism events, we provide food, housing, and transportation to as many activists as our resources will allow.
AAC often collaborates with other organizations and individuals to host in-person or online events. Each activist who participates in an AAC event must adhere to our policies.
