European Vegetarian Union

About us

The European Vegetarian Union (EVU) is the umbrella organisation of vegan and vegetarian associations and societies throughout Europe. Its main areas of focus are health, nutrition, consumer protection, sustainability and environmental issues.

The EVU is the voice of the growing number of Europeans shifting towards a more plant-based diet. As such, we advocate for a favourable food environment that makes it easier to choose more plant-based foods and dishes.

Through membership in the International Vegetarian Union the EVU is an active part of the worldwide community.
