Summary

The European Union Reference Centre for Animal Welfare for Poultry and other small farmed animals (EURCAW-Poultry-SFA) has been designated by the European Union to support its members in implementing and advancing welfare legislation across farms. This initiative focuses on facilitating welfare improvements during critical phases such as transportation and slaughtering processes, ensuring that animal health is prioritized throughout the supply chain. By leveraging the expertise of ANSES France, IRTA Spain, ANIVET Denmark, and IZLER Italy, the consortium aims to establish a reliable standard for monitoring welfare standards across all stages of meat production. Consequently, the Centre functions as a vital hub that harmonizes welfare regulations and provides practical tools for Member States to enhance animal care and compliance with EU rules. These measures are essential for safeguarding public health and promoting sustainable livestock industries worldwide.
