Uniting the Vegan Movement Across East Africa

The East African Vegan Society is here to support, connect, and strengthen the plant-based movement across our region.
We’re not here to imitate — we’re here to fill in the gaps, to root the vegan movement in East African realities, and to make the transition easier for all.

Whether you are already vegan, curious, or part of an organization doing good for animals and people, you are welcome.


🔹 Our Purpose

  • Grow veganism in East Africa in a way that is rooted in compassion, justice, and health

  • Unite efforts across the region so we don’t work in silos

  • Fill key gaps like affordable access to B12, supporting authentic vegan shelters, and creating clear guidance for those on the path

We believe veganism in East Africa should be empowering, not confusing — local, not imported.


🔹 Our First Projects

💊 Making B12 Accessible

Many people go plant-based, but B12 is expensive or unavailable. We’re working to change that, with regionally affordable options for all.

🛡️ Certifying True Vegan Shelters

We are developing a simple certification for shelters that align with plant-based values — no breeding, no exploitation, just love and care.

🌍 Explaining Why Veganism Matters

From ethics to ecology to health, we share clear reasons to choose compassion. This is about understanding — not guilt.

🤝 Supporting the Movement

We are not another group doing the same thing. We want to amplify what already exists and build bridges. Our work is guided by the Movement Ecology Theory of Change.
