MUMBAI: Humane Society International has announced that the Federation of Indian Animal Protection Organisations (FIAPO) has become a formal partner of its Be Cruelty-Freecampaign to end animal testing for cosmetics in India. FIAPO is a national collective of animal protection organisations in India and includes groups such as the Blue Cross of Hyderabad and CUPA in Bangalore.
FIAPO is thrilled to be a part of Humane Society International's Be Cruelty-Free campaign to end animal testing for beauty products ,"said FIAPO Chief Executive Arpan Sharma. Statistics on animal testing in India are unclear, so whilst we do not know how many poor creatures are being used to test cosmetics, we do know they are suffering unnecessarily because India has yet to fully utilise available non-animal alternatives. Humane methods of testing are at the forefront of modern science and together with Humane Society International, we look forward to the Be Cruelty-Freecampaign encouraging India's laboratories to embrace these advanced methods and to India's laws mandating their use,'' he added.
FIAPO has identified safety (toxicity) testing as a priority area of work, so joining forces with HSI to tackle cosmetics cruelty is a logical campaign fit. Together, FIAPO and HSI will raise consumer awareness of cruelty-free cosmetics and lobby India's policy makers to bring about a change in the law. Be Cruelty-Freeis a global campaign running across several parts of Asia, Europe, North and South America, Australia and beyond.
Humane Society International's Be Cruelty-Freecampaign will be greatly strengthened by our alliance with FIAPO ,'' explained N G Jayasimha, India director for HSI. While we have much work to do, we know that the Indian public cares very deeply about animal suffering and we hope that our lawmakers will join in our determination to make India a world leader in safety testing without animals,'' he further stated.
