In a jungle of labels, what is driving animal welfare practices?

Animal welfare is an essential preoccupation for all actors in the livestock sector, as well as for consumers, and has led to debates at various levels, both national and European, including in the Farm to Fork strategy. As a consequence, various policies, standards and labelling schemes have sprouted from different sources like producers, NGOs, national or EU institutions… This debate will look at the impact on actual animal welfare and consumer confidence.
Speakers:
- Inês Ajuda, Manager of the farm team at Eurogroup for Animals
- Denis Simonin, Senior Expert on animal welfare at the European Commission’s DG on Health and Food Safety
- Peter Sandøe, Professor of bioethics at the University of Copenhagen since 1997
- Trine Vig Tamstorf, Chief policy advisor for animal health and animal welfare at the Danish Agriculture and Food Council
