The AWI Quarterly is the magazine of the Animal Welfare Institute. This full-color periodical examines issues regarding animals everywhere—in the laboratory, on the farm, in commercial trade, at home, and in the wild. It is distributed to over 46,000 individuals and organizations, including public libraries, deans of medical and veterinary schools, laboratory technicians, scientists, farmers, teachers, law enforcement officers, shelters, animal protection organizations, members of Congress, and AWI members.
A subscription of the AWI Quarterly—available in both print and digital form—is included in your AWI membership. In addition to the AWI Quarterly, AWI membership includes an opportunity to receive free copies of our books and other materials as they are published. Click here to join AWI today.
