At ‘Paws for Progress’ on 6 November 2024, ICAM was thrilled to launch our Positive Cities Pledge during the World Urban Forum, with pioneering leadership from Bangkok, Cape Town, and Ilfov County, Romania, in humane dog and cat population management. The turnout was incredible – standing room only, showing just how much interest and enthusiasm there is for creating safer, healthier communities for everyone.  Learn more about this initiative.


About International Companion Animal Management (ICAM) Coalition

ICAM supports the development and use of humane and effective companion animal population management worldwide. The coalition was formed in 2006 as a forum for discussion on global dog and cat management issues.

Our key goals are to:

  • Share ideas and data
  • Discuss issues relevant to population management and welfare
  • Agree definitions and hence improve understanding
  • Provide guidance as a collegial and cohesive group
