What Our Peers Say
"Working with Fanalytics was incredibly helpful. They guided us in designing effective surveys to measure the long-term impact of the Plant Futures curriculum on students - from changes in behavior and dietary choices to shifts in career paths. Their support gave us a much
clearer understanding of how to collect meaningful data and evaluate the impact our program has on students over time."
Samantha DerrickExecutive Director, Plant Futures 
"The data provided by Faunalytics on days of suffering involved in producing various types of animal products were crucial in helping Anima International France estimate the cost-effectiveness of its institutional meat reduction campaign. Without Faunalytics' work, our analysis would likely have been significantly flawed. This ultimately leading us to completely reconsider our approach to find a more effective way to reduce animal suffering."
Kevyan MostaviBranch Director (France), Anima International 
"Faunalytics' work has been key to strengthening our advocacy work, allowing us to back up our campaigns with reliable data, which substantially improves the quality of the messages we share with decision-makers, the media and the general public. The accessibility of the content makes it easier for different parts of our team to incorporate it into their strategies."
Jesica Bon DenisFundación Veg 
“The work Faunalytics does is vital. Data is key for effective journalism, and our team of writers and editors frequently use the insights and datasets that Faunalytics provides to make our work more robust and impactful.”
Ana BradleyExecutive Director, Sentient 
"Faunalytics bridges the gap between academia and advocacy by making research accessible to everyone in the movement, and creating opportunities for more important research to happen. The high level of integrity in Faunalytics' research summaries makes them an invaluable resource especially to young professionals and students in the movement."
Tanwi WangikarSenior Program Coordinator, New Roots Institute 
"Faunalytics has consistently provided us with sound, actionable advice on how to best reach our audience and prioritize data-driven strategies. Faunalytics' commitment to providing research and guidance has been invaluable to our team, and we’re deeply grateful for the expertise
and support you bring to the movement. Thank you for everything you do to empower advocates and create a more informed and effective community."
Amie Albright-DunnHead of Communications and Partnerships, AVA International 
“Faunalytics helps us to measure the effectiveness of different advocacy strategies and helps us navigate how we show up for animals in different ways. As an advocacy organization, we depend on these essential findings when considering how we spend our limited resources.”
Britty MannFounder & Executive Director, Planted Society 
“Faunalytics improves the rigour of the animal advocacy movement through its emphasis on facts and data. I direct my students to the website when they are exploring research topics and designing projects. I feel inspired and energized when I engage with the website and I hope they will too.”
