What IDA is Doing

- IDA is working to end the killing of dogs for human consumption by providing support, advice and financial and other assistance to individuals and organizations dedicated to the same goal. IDA fully supports the work of Coexistence of Animal Rights on Earth, (CARE) based in South Korea as well as South Korean Animal Rights Advocates (KARA).

- Since 2005, IDA has coordinated the hugely successful International Day for South Korean Dogs and Cats. Dozens of cities around the world host outreach events and educate their communities about this important issue. Outside South Korean Embassies and Consulates around the globe, compassionate activist pass out leaflets and hold signs, drawing the world's attention to the dogs of South Korea.

- IDA sends out thousands of brochures each month to people all over the world. We are grateful to our members and supporters who distribute these brochures and engage in public outreach, heightening global awareness of the immeasurable suffering inflicted upon dogs and cats in South Korea.
