Declined to be Reviewed/Published
Where possible, we’ve included the reason for declining as reported by the charities themselves.
| Animal Outlook (formerly Compassion Over Killing) | They were too busy during Animal Charity Evaluators’ evaluation season to participate in the review process. Additionally, they chose to wait until the following year to be evaluated because they were developing a new program. |
| Equalia | |
| Eurogroup for Animals | |
| International Cooperation Committee of Animal Welfare | |
| L214 Éthique & Animaux | |
| New Harvest | They prefer to wait until the following year to be evaluated. |
| The Animal Save Movement | They prefer to wait until the following year to be evaluated (e.g., because they are developing a new program or bringing on new staff). |
