About us

The idea and definition of the concept of «FAUNISM», as well as the initiative derived from it, are the result of the unanimous agreement of the Psittacus Foundation’s Board at the meeting held on June 21, 2023.

With this decision, the Psittacus Foundation acted in coherence with its foundational purposes, offering animal lovers an idea, a project, with which to feel identified. A project that empowers us and drives us to claim with naturalness and conviction our way of understanding life in relation to animals and the environment.

The detailed specification of the ideological positioning of Faunism has been possible thanks to a multidisciplinary group of experts to whom the Psittacus Foundation is grateful for their collaboration and support.

The Faunist Initiative is destined to accentuate its multi-sectoral character and to expand internationally. This new dimension of Faunism will take shape through the creation of a new organization, which will take over from the Psittacus Foundation, in order to involve all sensibilities and sectors directly or indirectly related to animals.
