International Centre for Animal Rights and Ethics (ICARE)

We are a dedicated team of international volunteers committed to making legal rights for animals a reality worldwide, thereby better protecting the fundamental interests of sentient beings. We achieve this through legal education, research, advocacy, and consulting in animal rights law. Collaborating with leading scholars, legal professionals, and NGO experts, we offer unparalleled educational opportunities for a global audience. These include online courses, seminars, workshops, and in-person training that blend theory with practical application. Our programmes and activities are designed to have a wide-reaching impact, influencing legislation and ethical standards globally. Our research projects focus on critical areas, such as labour rights for animal workers, protecting animals in wars and disasters, combating wildlife crime, and the political representation of animals. We also mentor our alums via our Animal Rights and Vegan Advocacy Network (ARVAN) and offer strategic counsel to NGOs, animal advocates, and policymakers, maximising impactful animal advocacy and our positive impact on animals on a global scale. We only operate online, and our volunteers are internationally based, just as our alums come from all across the globe, because our courses are accessible to everyone, via our live and on-demand, self-paced learning options and thanks to scholarships. By focusing on long-term training, network building, and strategic partnerships, we aim to ensure sustained advocacy and progress for animal rights. Join us in our mission to transform the legal landscape for animals and achieve our vision of a world where all sentient beings are treated with justice and compassion!
