The World Animal Net Events Calendar is a comprehensive calendar of international events related to animal welfare. We include the following types of events in our calendar:
- Academic conferences exploring human-animal relations, animal welfare, animal law, animal rights, etc.
- Conferences hosted by animal protection organizations.
- Vegetarian, vegan, and cruelty-free festivals.
- Movie screenings for documentaries or other productions promoting animal protection.
- Professional meetings by animal policymaking bodies such as the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE).
- Demonstrations.
The World Animal Net events calendar is a service to the animal protection community. While the vast majority of events listed are those that promote animal welfare and protection, we will also occasionally list other events that may be useful for animal advocates or organizations, such as professional development opportunities or events hosted by certain animal-use organizations.
If you are aware of or are hosting an event that you feel should be listed, please register it! We will be happy to review the event and post it in our calendar at no cost to you.
Please note that inclusion of any event in the calendar should not be taken as an endorsement of the aims or methods of the event or the event's sponsors.
