Show Notes

Emre Kaplan is the Executive Director at Farmed Animal Protection Association in Turkey, the first farmed animal focussed charity in Turkey. 

In this episode, we talk through their organisation starting up, scaling and the lessons learnt along the way. We chat about their approach to activism in Turkey and the challenges they face working on these topics in this region.

Emre addresses many lessons we can learn from his experience starting to work on cage-free in this area and the importance of having the movements support as their work progresses.
