BE COUNTED!

TAKE THE

PLEDGE

It's free!

Vegan Australia is encouraging all vegans in Australia to stand up and BE COUNTED. Take the Vegan Pledge to show that you are part of a growing vegan social movement striving for a more just world.

Take the Vegan Pledge and be counted!

The Vegan Pledge is for all vegans, whether you've been vegan for a few days or your whole life.

We are asking every vegan in Australia to join the many others who have publicly confirmed that they follow the principles of veganism. Please take the time to take the pledge and be counted! Show that you are part of a growing vegan social movement striving for a more just world. You will strengthen Vegan Australia's ability to advance the vegan movement and its mission. This has a very important practical use: when we publicly advocate for veganism in our systemic and political work, we will be able to confidently say that we represent a large community of like-minded vegans. Together, we can truly make a difference.

When you take the pledge, you will also have the opportunity to share why being vegan is important to you by writing your own message to others. This, along with your first name and state, will then be shared publicly to our Pledge Wall as a way for us to be counted and for others to see what drives us to be vegan. You can read the powerful statements other vegans have made here on our Pledge Wall.

This is not a pledge for money. We are asking all vegans in Australia to come together to be counted. As a collective, we can do great things. If you are not yet vegan, learn more here.

THE PLEDGE

Vegan diet

I ensure that my diet consists wholly of plant foods, with no products derived from animals.

Vegan way of living

I do not use or consume, as far as is possible and practicable, any products of animal exploitation, for clothing, cosmetics, entertainment or any other purpose.

Vegan principles

I adhere to the principle that our fellow animals have the right to be treated with respect and justice and should not be commodified or treated as property.

Yes, I am vegan and I want to be counted.

A few of the individual messages vegans have written
Kerry
QLD

Animals are here with us, not for us - we have no right to exploit them. Animals are sentient beings, not food. My only regret about becoming vegan is that I didn't do it sooner.

Pledge #1136
Rachael
nsw

Veganism is the most practical and empowering way to live peacefully and cause as little harm as possible. Plus, it feels great to actually do something meaningful to create a better world for all (and especially animals)!

Pledge #3
Tamzyn
NSW

Like many others, I am horrified by the brutal conditions farm animals are kept in. It is unnecessary and I pledge that I will never again support any industry that kills innocent sentient beings.

Pledge #462
Imogen
VIC

Veganism is essential for the minimisation of harm to people, non human animals and the earth. It continues the momentum from various movements in recognising the basic rights of individuals regardless of differences, which should be extended to animals.

Pledge #1185
Cameron
VIC

Animal agriculture is ethically wrong and doesn't make any logical sense - we have other options.

Pledge #1067
Jeremy
NSW

Veganism means to me freedom and respect for all sentient beings. Except politicians. They would need to pass a test.

Pledge #1287
Linda
QLD

I choose not to harm animals in any way. Being vegan is about putting animals first and educating others about their welfare.

Pledge #865
Catherine
WA

It's a life of least harm. We don't need to exploit and hurt animals to live well, so why would we?

Pledge #982
Ken
QLD

I believe that all animals have a right to exist free from exploitation from humans.

Pledge #9
1 2 3 97
