On our own, we cannot solve all the problems surrounding the welfare of exotic animals. That is why we like to work together with similar organizations, authorities and research institutes from all over the world. This is how we increase our impact. Where possible, we also work together with our opponents. After all, they need to be convinced that they too have an interest in animal welfare and species protection.
AAP is a member of Eurogroup for Animals. Together we work to improve the welfare of non-domesticated, exotic animals within the European Union. For example, AAP works with Eurogroup for Animals against the illegal trade in Barbary macaques.
AAP is a member of EARS (European Alliance of Rescue Centres and Sanctuaries). Together we strive for sustainable improvements in the welfare of animal species and address the underlying causes, ultimately making shelters and sanctuaries unnecessary.
AAP is a member of Species Survival Network. Here we work on improved (implementation of) laws and regulations, in order to protect species internationally.
AAP is part of the Dierencoalitie (Animal Coalition) and works with the (Dierenbescherming) Animal Protection Society to improve animal welfare in the Netherlands.
AAP is part of the InfoCircos coalition, which is working to end the use of wild animals in Spanish circuses.
And many more!
