About
Humane World for Animals Australia (formerly Humane Society International Australia) is an animal welfare and conservation organization that protects animals in Australia and globally through wildlife conservation, improving animal welfare, and ending exploitation of animals in trade and industry. The organization works across four strategic areas: Animal Welfare, Australian Wildlife and Habitats, Marine Animals, and International Wildlife, with achievements including legal protections for nearly 7 million hectares of wildlife habitat and better lives for millions of farm animals through advocacy.
Tips for Applicants

Focus on demonstrable conservation outcomes, species protection, and advocacy work. Engage through their partnership programs and demonstrated track record of working with on-ground conservation organizations.
Giving Philosophy
The organization approaches giving through strategic partnerships, direct advocacy, and funding conservation projects both domestically and internationally. They prioritize species protection, habitat conservation, ending animal exploitation in trade and industry, and emergency response for animals affected by natural disasters. They work with 11 project partners across 7 countries and support Wildlife Land Trust members.
