about us

VivaBiH

Vegan Association
of Bosnia and Herzegovina

 

We are the first registered organization fighting for animal rights in Bosnia and Herzegovina(2016). Many “animal rights” organizations put the “more humane, better” treatment of animals and their well-being first, thus mainly focusing on pets, whereas we fight for the total abolishment of the systems which exploit animals in the first place, fighting for all animals’ rights.

We bring the news about activism for animal rights, make animal rights campaigns, fight against abuse and exploitation of all animals, share vegan recipes, help with buying vegan, cruelty-free products and growing vegan community in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Our Vision

Our vision is a Bosnia and Herzegovina where all animals have their freedom and rights to live without being exploited for food, clothing, experiments, entertainment etc. We strive toward an ethical, environmentally sustainable and healthy food system without exploiting any animal.

Our Mision

Our mission is to raise awareness on animal exploitation and to educate the public by sharing knowledge of the ethical, environmental and health benefits of veganism. While working with institutions to make vegan diet affordable for everyone, we empower people to make healthy, sustainable and compassionate choices.
