Frequently Asked Questions

Veganuary directly supported more than 1.8 million people to try vegan for a month with our free resources.

To enable people to participate in the campaign in ways that suit their lifestyle in an ever-changing world, Veganuary now offers its support and guidance in multiple formats, including 31 daily coaching emails, which people opt into via the website, a weekly podcast, a series of 31 daily coaching videos on YouTube, social media channels in English, German, Spanish and Portuguese, as well as retail products including the brand new Official Veganuary Cookbook.

Globally, more than 1.8 million people chose to actively receive Veganuary’s resources and support via one or more of these channels. But even this huge number is likely to be just a fraction of the people actually taking part in Veganuary. We commissioned several YouGov surveys in our core campaign countries to establish the percentage of people who report having taken part in Veganuary during January 2024.

Based on these results and the current population estimates for each country, Veganuary has calculated that roughly 25 million people worldwide chose to try vegan this January.

Veganuary is not a medical organization and we are not medical professionals, so unfortunately we cannot provide any type of medical advice to our participants. If you have a concern about your health, we strongly suggest speaking to your doctor or a registered dietician who is sympathetic to plant-based eating. You can also find information on vegan-friendly doctors and dieticians here and here.
