Vegan Congress is an activist group, co-founded in 2013 by artists Julie Andreyev, Trudy Chalmers, Beth Carruthers, Jesse Garbe, Carol Gigliotti, Geneviève Raiche-Savoie, and Maria Lantin with the intention to demystify veganism by providing events and information relating to the vegan practice.[1][2] Currently involving faculty, staff and students at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Vancouver; Simon Fraser University, Vancouver; University of British Columbia Okanagan, Kelowna; and independent scholar Dr. Carol Gigliotti, working in the US. The Vegan Congress seeks to provide practical knowledge on the global state of non-human animals with respect to ethics, dietary habits, ecology, agriculture and other forms of production and consumption.[3] The effort to address such issues are sought through relational activities and events that aim to encourage discourse concerning one's relationships with other animals, health and the environment,[4] along with striving to promote visibility and applied ethics within a community.[5]
