The Impact of Our Investigations
- Promoting the global investigative community
- Played a significant role in Israel’s “vegan wave” of the 2010s.
- The investigations and their outcomes were published in Israel and internationally, triggering nationwide public debate with hundreds of media follow-ups
- Outcomes include legal action, legislative changes, and the formation of a special government committee. Criminal convictions followed, setting new legal precedents, including the first ever conviction for farm animal abuse and successful class-action lawsuits yielding more than $2 million for animal protection organizations. They also contributed to reduced meat purchasing by major food brands
- They supported a campaign I initiated and managed, that successfully stopped a governmental reform aimed at increasing chicken slaughter by 10%
- Creation of "landscape of fear", making abusers afraid of being caught, trailed and lose their livelihood
