How vegans can make real political change
Here at VLCM, we equip our members to make change within the corporate world, but we don’t want the world of politics to go unnoticed. Politicians, voters, and lobbyists are closely linked to the corporate world and making change within a corporation is not too different from making change within a government.
This inspiring panel brings together two trailblazers:
Saide Cable, who founded a thriving vegan staff network inside her UK government organization, turning values into policies that affect thousands,
Clifton Roberts, who broke new ground running for the American presidency on a vegan platform while shaping change inside a Fortune 500 company.
What will you learn?
Change happens everywhere. From local councils to global parliaments, more politicians and public servants are plant-based than you might think. By supporting these leaders and encouraging them to be vocal, we help veganism go mainstream.
Overcome the stigma. For years, being “out” as a vegan in politics was risky. Today, the tide is turning. By speaking up confidently about your values, at work or in public, you make it easier for others to do the same.
Start where you are. Change doesn’t just happen on the campaign trail. You can drive impact from inside your workplace, by starting a vegan network or advocating for plant-based options and sustainable policies. Your daily actions matter!
Build bridges, grow your influence. Successful activism is about listening, connecting, and finding common ground, even with those who aren’t (yet) vegan. Frame your initiatives around values everyone can relate to; compassion, health, or sustainability, to build a bigger, stronger coalition.
Shape your career for real-world impact. Whether you’re aiming to lead change inside a corporation or considering a run for office, now is the time to be bold. The panelists show how you can leverage your skills, network, and experience to make a meaningful difference.
Every conversation counts. Don’t wait for a perfect plan. By simply starting conversations, supporting vegan colleagues, or volunteering for change, you’re helping pave the way for a more compassionate world.
