Albert Schweitzer Stiftung

Albert Schweitzer Stiftung is a German non-profit organization dedicated to ending animal suffering for food production by raising welfare standards and reducing consumption of animal products. The headquarters are located in Germany.

Here are key aspects of the company:

• Vision & Mission: The organization aims to create a world where no animal suffers for food production by gradually increasing protection standards and lowering the demand for animal-derived goods.
• Achievements: Key successes include nearly abolishing cage housing for laying hens, ending beak trimming in this sector, restricting trade with foie gras and lobsters, and establishing higher minimum welfare standards for millions of broiler chickens.
• Advocacy Focus: The foundation actively campaigns against intensive farming practices, evidenced by legal victories such as the turkey lawsuit which ruled standard battery conditions violate animal protection laws.

The Albert Schweitzer Stiftung drives systemic change through a combination of litigation, policy advocacy, and public education to eliminate industrial animal agriculture.
