#CirquesSansAnimaux: One Voice makes available a "decree" more solid for the communities
One Voice and its legal team stand ready to assist municipalities who wish to act against animal exploitation for entertainment.
All the animals held in the circuses suffer from captivity, homelessness, and from the training: boredom, confinement, lack of retreat from humans, of whom they have an instinctive fear of, scary noises, brutality … The list seems infinite, so much so that their well-being is denied.
This is especially true of wild animals in danger in this environment. Their natural life should be respected. They should not be subject to indiscrimination by humans, nor even dominated by them … but protected.
In the absence of a national law that prohibits their exploitation in circuses, many municipalities in France have decided not to endorse such shows. In real democracies, the mayors rely on the vote from the city council, to then enforce the opinions of their fellow citizens. Unfortunately, the decisions taken following the voting and of certain decrees are open to legal challenges, and are often annulled as a result of the recourse from the Circuses and their lawyers.
Therefore, rich is our expertise in the field, and always in the perspective of proposing solutions to our requirements for societal advances, we have available to any municipality that wishes to develop a solid decree “a complete package”, together with a consultation guide book. One Voice and its legal team stand ready to assist municipalities who wish to act against animal exploitation for entertainment.
