Faunalytics
Faunalytics released a deep dive exploring the research on humane education — programs that teach the consequences of animal agriculture and/or respect for animals — examining how these initiatives influence dietary choices, shape attitudes toward animals, and inspire lasting compassionate action.
The organization is now accepting applications for their Community & Research Coordinator role. This mid-level role sits at the intersection of research, communications, and community engagement, building strong relationships with advocates and translating research findings into practical, accessible resources that support real-world advocacy. Applications are due March 15, 2026.

New Research: Food Systems Advocacy In The Global South
Advocacy doesn’t happen in a vacuum, but many global strategies assume a “one-size-fits-all” approach. In our latest study, Faunalytics with The Good Growth Co. developed and tested a new contextual advocacy framework in India to help advocates navigate local political, cultural, and economic realities.
We found that external factors, like religious norms, livelihoods, and government priorities, influenced campaign outcomes 40% of the time. This resource provides advocates and funders with actionable recommendations for conducting “context scans” and organizational readiness checks to ensure your next campaign is built for its specific environment.
AI In Animal Advocacy
From data summarization to campaign scaling, AI is reshaping how we work. But as tech evolves, so do the risks. Faunalytics examines the “Promise, Peril, and Patience” of AI in the animal protection movement, offering a data-driven look at current trends, the influence of Effective Altruism on tech adoption, and where the movement should exercise caution.

Analyzing Prop 12’s Impact On U.S. Trade
When the Supreme Court upheld California’s Proposition 12, the meat industry predicted a national market collapse. Two years later, the data is finally coming in. Faunalytics has analyzed the latest USDA figures to see how state-level welfare bans are actually reshaping American meat production and trade. From slaughter volumes to unnoticed export shifts, we’re digging into which industry claims held up, and which ones didn’t.
