Welcome to AWLA
Caring for the Nation's Animals
Animal welfare organisations have a responsibility to raise awareness of animal welfare issues, promote responsibility towards the welfare of animals and to participate in the development of codes, policies and programs aimed at maintaining high standards of sustainable animal welfare in Australia.
Working as a coordinated network to collect and share knowledge; deliver and share best practice programs, such as desexing and microchipping, and as a National body have a stronger voice when educating and informing the public on animal welfare issues.
For just this reason, in spring 2007, the Animal Welfare Leagues of New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Queensland, announced the formation of this brand new national organisation, AWLA.
Our Mission
We exist to uphold and promote the welfare of companion animals and to facilitate animal/human relationships.
