Regional Focal Points

Where to mail your poster entries:

Please mail your poster submission to your Regional Focal Point unless your National Focal Point wants you to mail it to them. Check the National Focal Points (in the DAF menu, above) to see if your national contact group wants you to mail your poster submission directly to their office. If your country doesn’t have a National Focal Point - please mail your poster to Respect for Animals in the United Kingdom.

The International Animation Contest is directed by Canada's Global Action Network (GAN) - please go to our International Animation Contest section for your submission details - unless you go to college in China - China students need to get their submission details from DAFChina.com.

INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION CONTEST

An official member of the World Society for the Protection of Animals and the Fur Free Alliance, Global Action Network campaigns against the fur trade through education, grassroots organizing, coalition building, and political networking.

GAN is acting as the Design Against Fur International Animation Contest Regional Focal Point.
