About Project 1882
With effective campaigns and political advocacy, Project 1882 makes a difference globally for the animals that are the most exploited and suffer the worst. We have been a driving animal advocacy organization in Sweden and beyond since 1882, creating change for millions of animals.
How we work
We provide information about animal welfare and bring citizens' opinions to those in power. We shape public opinion and influence legislation. We dismantle factory farming and advocate for the development of animal-free research methods. We inspire and enable consumers and companies to choose vegan options and make animal-friendly choices. With effective campaigns we engage the public, highlight animal welfare problems, present solutions and bring about concrete changes.
Support our work
Project 1882 is entirely dependent on donations from the public. All donations make a difference and help create concrete results for animals. If you want to support our work for the animals, you can do it here. Thanks!
Focus areas
Project 1882 works globally to make a difference for the animals that are the most exploited and suffer the worst. Our clients are the chickens, hens, cows, pigs and other animals in need of our help − we are there to give them a voice and defend their rights. That is the core of our project since 1882.
