Party for the Animals (Partij voor de Dieren)
We are a Dutch political party whose highest priority is animal welfare and the respectful treatment of animals. In the Netherlands, we are represented in the House of Representatives, the Senate and the Provincial States. That is unique: never before has a political party devoted to animal welfare been elected to a national parliament anywhere else in the world.

Detailed Information:
The Party for the Animals is the driving force behind debates about animal rights and welfare in the national and provincial parliaments. We continually work to put animals on the political agenda. Our influence is much greater than our number of seats would have you imagine. From the very outset, it was our intention that the Party for the Animals would be a pacemaker, and we managed to achieve this before our party ever even won a single seat. Politicians simply do not like to be known as people who do not like animals. The more often they are confronted with questions about animal welfare, the more animal-friendly they seem to become.
