Resources elsewhere
Campaigning is something to share ideas on. We're building a list here of other places where there are good campaigning resources. We'll gradually link them in more with our own ActiVeg resources.
- PETA's excellent campaigning technique guides
- Vegan Campaigns - the wonderful London group and their campaigning tactics guide.
- The VSO's action and activity guide - a wonderful resource for effective campaigning techniques.
Great books to inspire you
There are some great titles at the Viva! shop, and anything you buy through the Vegetarian Society's link to Amazon donates money back to them.
An essential and very easy read and reference for anyone planning to get active, is the tried and tested "Campaign Against Cruelty".
