Supporting animal-free innovation in the beauty sector
We’re driving a global move away from animal testing for cosmetics – championing legal reforms, and have developed a first of its kind master class in animal-free safety assessment to build awareness and confidence in new scientific approaches to consumer protection.
Global regulatory alignment
We’re spearheading efforts to outlaw cosmetics animal testing and trade in key global markets by 2024.
Capacity-building in non-animal cosmetic safety assessment
We’re developing educational resources to support long-term acceptance and use of non-animal approaches.
