About ADI

Animal Defenders International, the National Anti-Vivisection Society, and the Lord Dowding Fund for Humane Research, work together globally for the protection of animals.

We have offices in London UK, Los Angeles USA, and Bogota Colombia as well as representatives and partner organisations in many other countries.

We take a unique holistic, self-sufficient approach to achieving long-term protection for animals. We work at all levels, from start to finish of a campaign – from undercover investigations to scientific and economic research, publication of technical reports, through to public education, to drafting and securing legislative protection for animals.

Our animal rescue work is directly linked to campaigns, whether it be animals in entertainment, or those used in laboratories. The scientific and medical research that we fund through the Lord Dowding Fund dovetails perfectly with our campaigns to end animal experimentation.
