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.
Forever and always vegan! There is no other option ethically, morally or soulfully!
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. I ensure that my diet consists wholly of plant foods, with no products derived from animals.
I enter my pledge in being vegan.
Animals are friends not food!
Animals should never suffer for our vanity, consumption or entertainment and deserve to be treated with kindness, respect and equality.
As doctors, we are taught the principle of "First, do no harm". In January 2024 I realised I could no longer ignore the daily moral injury of continuing to support an industry that causes great harm to living, feeling creatures. Life has never been better.
Every time I consider choosing hedonism or greater ease at the expense of another living being's freedom and agency to live their own beautiful life, when I am a human with so much privilege to choose another way, the trade-off feels impossibly unjust.
If we can live happy and healthy lives without harming others, why wouldn't we?!
My whole family is vegan. We love animals and the environment and want to protect our beautiful country!
