The Animal & Vegan Advocacy (AVA) Summit is dedicated to creating a world in which non-human animals are removed from the food system and other human uses and replaced by non-animal proteins, technology, and other innovations. It aims to accelerate progress and systemic change for animals by empowering advocates and organizations to increase their impact. The AVA Summit welcomes people who come to their journey with any motivation, including animal, environmental, personal health, social justice, and other intersecting movements. We support numerous strategies and tactics for advancing this vision, from grassroots activism to highly specialized engagement, individual outreach to food systems change, legislative change, corporate engagement, and advancing animal-free technologies.
The Animal & Vegan Advocacy (AVA) Summit will take place in Washington, DC at the Hilton Mark Center Alexandria Hotel. The event will begin on Thursday, October 20, 2022, at 4 pm EST, and end on Sunday, October 23, 2022, at 6 pm EST.
This event has the potential to change lives. Individuals will come together from around the world and work together in a like-minded, values driven community to learn from leading experts in animal advocacy. Attendees can expect to leave with newfound inspiration, strategies, and methods to be more impactful advocates – whether in their personal advocacy, or within their organizations. As a ripple effect, attendees will be empowered to continue with their effective and influential efforts within the movement, ultimately, reaching our primary goal: saving the lives of animals.
The Animal & Vegan Advocacy (AVA) Summit is a non-profit organization based in Washington, DC, organizing a conference to advance global efforts and effectiveness in animal rights and animal advocacy.
