Asia Accountability
Initiative
Ensuring Corporate accountability for animal welfare across Asia
Our Vision
“We envision a world where the food industry embraces cage-free eggs across Asia”
About Us
We empower individuals and organizations across Asia to support food businesses in fulfilling their animal welfare commitments and transparently reporting progress.
By offering tailored training and strategic guidance, we help animal advocates become effective partners in advancing transparency and promoting ethical practices within the food industry. Through collaboration, we drive positive change that aligns with both business objectives and societal expectations.

Asia is Home to Largest Population of Farmed Animals

Major companies around the world are changing the way egg-laying hens are treated, and with some support, such change can progress faster in Asia.

Why cage-free commitments?
Egg-laying hens are often confined to small, overcrowded cages, severely restricting their ability to engage in natural behaviours like spreading their wings, dust bathing, and perching. For their entire lives, these hens are denied the freedom to move and behave as they would naturally.
The setting
Over the years, many food companies have pledged to improve the welfare of animals in their supply chains by sourcing higher-welfare products. For egg-laying hens, this means transitioning to cage-free systems, which allow the birds more space to move freely and express their natural behaviors.
The problem
However, in Asia, most companies have yet to fully meet these commitments or provide transparent updates on their progress toward sourcing cage-free eggs. Supply chain challenges have made it difficult for many businesses to honour these promises.
The response
In response, organisations have stepped in to support companies in overcoming these hurdles and fulfilling their animal welfare commitments. Asia Accountability Initiative plays a key role by supporting advocates who work with companies to track and report their progress on cage-free egg procurement.

Every single penny counts
Millions of animals across Asia live in cages, suffering every day. Your support can help change that. By donating to the Asia Accountability Initiative, you empower advocates to hold corporations accountable for their promises, freeing animals from cages and promoting ethical practices in the food industry.
Every contribution—no matter the size—brings us closer to a world where animals are treated with dignity and compassion. Together, we can make a real difference.
