Summary

The European Union Reference Centre for Animal Welfare for Poultry and other small farmed animals, designated as EURCAW-Poultry-SFA, was established under an implementing decision from the European Commission on October 4, 2019, to support the European Commission and Member States in implementing welfare legislation for poultry and small farms. This initiative serves as a central platform for coordinating welfare standards across all participating countries, particularly focusing on critical aspects such as transportation and slaughtering processes. The consortium includes institutions from France, Spain, Denmark, and Italy working in tandem to ensure that animal welfare requirements are met consistently throughout the industry lifecycle.
