Our Vision

ANIMAL RIGHTS

Rights-based animal rights is a view that all animals are rights bearers and that their use by humans are rights violations. To say that “animals have rights” is to say that other animals have moral rights and these rights should be codified into law to become legal rights, which Sentient Rights Ireland is dedicated to achieve.

We call on all animals to be declared Sentient Beings and an Animal Rights Charter to be outlined and cultural speciesism to come to an end, https://www.animal-ethics.org/speciesism

HUMAN RIGHTS

Human Rights are the cornerstone of humanity. They belong to us all simply because we are human. They are in place to protect us from injustice and to ensure our dignity as living beings is guaranteed. Sadly, violations of these rights occur often effecting already vulnerable groups disproportionately. It is vital that everyone who has a voice, uses it to speak up when they see human rights abuse. As we are all stronger together. Sentient Rights Ireland will advocate for equality and social inclusion with your help.

CLIMATE & ENVIRONMENT

We support a fast and fair transition from fossil fuel to renewable energy with green back up storage, a fully revamped grid where green energy can be sold back to the grid. We call for new renewable energy projects to be fast tracked to reflect the urgency of the climate crisis and the imperative of zero emissions by 2050 the latest.

We support a fully sustainable countryside with rewilding space created by the transition from animal farming to other land uses. We will fund community energy projects and set up a body to facilitate animal farmers transition to other land uses.

Sentient Rights Ireland look forward to a plant-based society, sustainable, Veganic and regenerative, when for the first time Ireland will be self-sufficient in food and energy and be in a position to become an exporter of both.

We foresee a society where people are happy, healthy and able to express their moral agency and regard animals with respect and afford them their Animal-Rights and have regard for biodiversity and respect for nature in all development decisions.
