Our newly published White Paper, “Reforming Pig Welfare in the European Union: The Case for a Cage-Free Future,” made the news in Vegconomist, the vegan business magazine, today.
The European Commission’s Vision 2040 for Fisheries and Aquaculture is out, and we’re happy to see a mention of animal welfare. The text says the Commission will “further develop the EU framework for the welfare of farmed aquatic animals across all stages of production, building on existing good husbandry practices, guidance and scientific knowledge.”
Our new White Paper, “Reforming Pig Welfare in the European Union: The Case for a Cage-Free Future,” has been featured on the website of the German Veterinarian Network.
Our latest publication is a White Paper advocating for stronger protection of pigs under EU law through a prohibition of caged farming. “Reforming Pig Welfare in the European Union: The Case for a Cage-Free Future,” by Gabriela Kubíková, Artūrs Kaņepājs, Griffin Carpenter and Marietheres Reinke, presents a compelling argument for a transition to free farrowing in the pig sector, with the aim of informing the Commission’s ongoing modernization of animal welfare legislation.
