WAP has a bold vision to create ‘a world where animals live free from cruelty and suffering’. Today, billions of animals, especially farm animals, face a starkly different reality.
Since 2015, WAP has been addressing this challenge by engaging major food companies and producers to phase out the worst farming methods and practices, including close confinement, overcrowding, barren environments and other related poor welfare practices. They know that this is not enough.

Starting in 2021, WAP will be working to transform the global food system and prevent an exponential growth in farm animal suffering from an expansion of factory farming. They recognise that transforming the food system will require much greater resources than of any one organisation and is indeed well beyond the combined means of today’s animal protection movement. Thus, they need to actively work with and support other organisations and sectors, which can join them in tackling these significant global problems.
Thus, WAP has launched an initiative to support projects that address issues related to farm animal welfare (FAW) at scale in countries with the largest numbers of farm animals and/or have the potential to impact large numbers of animals across Southeast Asia.

World Animal Protection is working to improve the lives of farmed animals, including chickens, pigs, and dairy cattle by:
Working with food businesses to end cruel practices and systems, such as barren and crowded environments and painful mutilations;
Piloting projects that demonstrate the viability of high-welfare production systems;
Shift or create government or inter government policy to improve farm animal welfare
Empowering consumers demonstrate their growing appetite for higher welfare products, thus putting pressure on corporates to significantly improve their farm animal welfare policies and practices; and
Exploring a systems-based approach to transform the global food system beyond 2020.
