Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Animal Advocacy Strategy Forum 2023 Summary, published by Neil Dullaghan on November 20, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum.
Introduction
In July 2023, the Animal Advocacy Strategy Forum[1] was held over three days with the purpose of bringing together key decision-makers in the animal advocacy community to connect, coordinate, and strategize. At the end of the forum, 35/44 participants filled out a survey similar to last year's Forum survey (
Duffy 2023) that sought to better understand the future needs of effective animal advocacy groups and the perceptions of animal advocates about the most important areas to focus on in the future.
The attendees represented approximately 27 key groups in the animal advocacy space. 23/35 survey participants were in senior leadership positions at their organization (C-level, founder, and various "Executive" and "Director" roles).
Our report discusses the results of that survey and workshops of the forum itself.
