New York University, Center for Environmental and Animal Protection

Our mission is to advance understanding of how humanity affects animals and the environment at scale. Our vision is a world where humans, animals, and ecosystems are able to flourish together. We pursue this goal by conducting and supporting research, outreach, and—through our Food Impact Program—field-building activities.

We advance understanding of environmental and animal protection in three key ways:

1. Research: We conduct and support research in the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences.
2. Outreach: We engage with decision-makers through direct consultation and public communication.
3. Field-building: Through our Food Impact Program, we host events and support early-career researchers.
