Animal Welfare

With the support and close co-operation of the EU countries, the European Commission has been promoting animal welfare for over 40 years gradually improving the lives of farm animals.

The 'Platform on Animal Welfare', as well as its tasks and operations, have been set out in Commission Decision of 24 January 2017.

The EU Platform on Animal Welfare is an interactive network which aims at promoting dialogue among competent authorities, businesses, civil society organisations and scientists on animal welfare issues that are relevant for the Union.

This dialogue intends to build mutual understanding, foster trust and encourage voluntary commitments between Platform members to achieve concrete results in improving the welfare of animals.

The Platform therefore relies on the contribution of each of its members, hence the motto "Everyone is responsible".
