About Me

www.koreananimals.org

International Aid for Korean Animals (IAKA) is an organization dedicated to promoting animal welfare protection in Korea through education, stricter animal cruelty laws and the continued development of shelters and humane education centers in Korea.

We are Koreans who have been working for over 15 years on behalf of Korean animals by upholding Korea's true values and traditions to create a more compassionate and just society. The plight of companion animals in South Korea (dogs and cats) is an especially urgent and neglected cause that we have chosen to focus most of our energies upon these past decades. We strongly feel that the protection of companion animals in South Korea is an important foundation for the protection and welfare of all animals. That is why IAKA has been committed to ending the dog and cat meat trade, teaching compassion towards animals, and enforcing strong animal protection laws in Korea.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

We are looking for fellow animal lovers to support our cause and to help spread the word about the cruelty and torture suffered by animals in Korea. We are always looking for people to distribute our materials and to write letters to government and media to raise awareness.

IAKA is in need of bilingual volunteers to help us with translation between Korean and English. If you are interested, please email [email protected]
