World Animal Protection (WAP) is a global organisation with 14 offices all over the world. WAP has been protecting animals around the world for over 50 years.

Our objective is to ensure farmed and wild animals live a good life, and their habitat is protected. We are working to transform our food system towards a just, humane and sustainable system where everyone has access to safe, nutritious and affordable protein, produced within environmental boundaries, where smallholders live in dignity and receive a decent livelihood.

We want to see a reduction in emissions from the industrial agricultural sector to enable us to meet the Paris agreement targets, and an end to land clearance/reduction in carbon sinks for animal feed and industrial agriculture.

Globally: Bringing the voices of Asian and African CSO working on tackling emission from industrial livestock production at international forum such as COP, G20/7.  We are also part of the #StopFinancingFactoryFarming Campaign, a coalition that works in partnership with locally affected communities and organisations to shift development finance away from industrial livestock production.

Regionally: Building the movement of local CSO in Asia and Africa to tackle emissions from industrial livestock production through a Just Food transition. We are bringing together CSO with expertise in health, human and smallholder rights and environment issues to align our ask to bring true systemic change to tackle emission from industrial livestock production and meet the targets of the Paris agreement. https://justfoodtransitionroadmap.com/

Locally: We are working towards influencing governments to publicly acknowledge the significance of agricultural emissions to the climate emergency; and that industrial livestock production accounts for a high proportion of agricultural emissions.
