Not sure which AVA event is right for you? Don't worry, we've got you.
AVA events work to bring together, serve, and strengthen the global animal & vegan advocacy movement and community.
​
We strive to ensure every advocate around the world attends at least one of our events each year, with one common goal in mind; remove animals from our food system and other human uses.
