At the forefront of the fight for farmed animals in the Global South, Sinergia Animal is an international animal protection organization making waves in Latin America and South-East Asia. By leveraging strategic corporate campaigns, institutional outreach, and food policy programs, they are driving systemic change to reduce animal suffering and promote a more compassionate food system.
Who is Sinergia Animal?
Sinergia Animal operates in some of the world’s largest emerging markets, where industrial animal agriculture is expanding rapidly. Their work is crucial in these regions, as factory farming intensifies and millions of animals endure extreme confinement and cruelty. Through advocacy efforts, Sinergia Animal is pushing major food companies to commit to higher welfare standards, including cage-free egg policies and its implementation. Their campaigns have successfully influenced leading retailers, restaurant chains, and food manufacturers to adopt better sourcing practices.
What is Sinergia Animal doing?
Over the last 7 years, since their establishment and working tirelessly in 9 countries, Sinergia Animal’s work impacts over one hundred millions animals each year.
Driving Change Through Corporate Engagement and Campaigns
One of Sinergia Animal’s most impactful strategies is engaging with corporations to improve animal welfare policies. The organization works closely with major food industry players to transition to cage-free eggs and implement higher welfare practices for farmed animals. By applying pressure through public awareness campaigns and constructive dialogue, they have secured commitments from some of the biggest brands in Latin America and Southeast Asia. These victories set new industry benchmarks and created a ripple effect, influencing even more companies to follow suit. As of today, Sinergia has helped secure more than 200 commitments worldwide, but the work doesn’t stop there. After announcing policies, companies must report their progress and complete their transition by the defined timeline. These advances are published annually on Sinergia’s Cage-free Tracker.
Empowering Consumers and Institutions
Beyond corporate outreach, Sinergia Animal focuses on shifting consumer behavior and institutional policies. Their initiatives educate the public about the realities of factory farming while promoting plant-based alternatives. They also collaborate with schools, hospitals, and government institutions to increase the availability of plant-based meals, making compassionate choices more accessible to large populations. By addressing both supply and demand, Sinergia Animal ensures long-term change for farmed animals.
What Makes Sinergia Animal the “Organization of the month”?
Sinergia Animal’s work is rooted in a strategic, data-driven approach to advocacy. They carefully measure their impact, ensuring that their initiatives lead to tangible improvements for animals. Their relentless efforts have earned them recognition as one of the world’s most effective animal protection organizations by independent evaluators such as Animal Charity Evaluators (ACE) for six years in a row. This acknowledgment highlights their efficiency in utilizing resources to maximize their impact for farmed animals.
As Sinergia Animal continues its mission, they remain dedicated to expanding their reach and increasing their impact. With a vision of a more compassionate and sustainable food system, they will keep pushing for policy changes, strengthening their corporate campaigns, and inspiring consumers to make choices that protect animals. Their work is a testament to the power of advocacy and strategic campaigning in creating a world where animals don’t have to suffer for food production.
