The Humane League

The Humane League (THL) is an international nonprofit organization that works to end the abuse of animals raised for food through corporate, media and community outreach.

THL promotes plant-based diets, conducts research on the effectiveness of different interventions, and works to obtain animal welfare commitments from companies.

[1] THL had been involved in over 100 campaigns to convince global companies to pledge using only non-battery cage eggs after a certain date,[6] including Sodexo,[7] Mariott International,[8] Costco, Grupo Bimbo, Starbucks, Compass Group, and Dunkin' Donuts.

[15] THL created in 2016 the Open Wing Alliance, a global coalition of more than 100 animal welfare organizations aiming to end the use of cages in egg production.

[15] THL founded in 2013 a research unit called "The Humane League Labs" that evaluates on the effectiveness of different animal advocacy tactics.

[24] Partly as a result of the Animal Charity Evaluators recommendation, THL has been viewed positively in the effective altruism movement.
