Isaac Babatunde Fasipe is a passionate animal welfare advocate with experience in project management and in addressing animal welfare, public health, environmental sustainability, climate change, and food systems. He is committed to advancing higher animal welfare standards through research, training, stakeholder engagement, and policy advocacy.

He is the co-founder of Sanuvia, an organization working to strengthen regulatory frameworks in response to the rise of industrial animal agriculture in Nigeria. Through research, multi-stakeholder engagement, and policy reform, Sanuvia seeks to mitigate the negative impacts of industrial farming while advancing animal welfare, One Health principles, and sustainable food systems. Isaac brings strong analytical skills, adaptability, and a collaborative mindset to his work, with a focus on transforming food systems in Nigeria and beyond.

Support from the EA community is vital. Funding helps expand workshops, training, and compliance monitoring, while expertise, advocacy, and networks accelerate policy adoption. By contributing resources, knowledge, or connections, EA members can help Sanuvia mitigate industrial farming harms, raise welfare standards, and foster ethical, sustainable food systems in Nigeria.

I can offer insights on animal welfare, collaborate on joint projects or initiatives, and provide constructive feedback on others’ projects or ideas. I’m happy to connect EA community members with relevant contacts in my network and share lessons learned from my work in aquaculture, ruminant, and poultry welfare.
