Online survey to identify the needs of competent authorities for monitoring animal welfare in real-time (15 minutes)
Link to the online survey: SubTask1.1_SoA25 – 1/9
Launched in 2024, the European Partnership for Animal Health and Welfare (EUPAHW) supports sustainable animal production across sectors. Its goal is to identify research priorities aligned with EU policy and strengthen collaboration between public research, innovation bodies, competent authorities, policy makers, and other stakeholders. One of its current projects (SoA25) focuses on providing new insights for policies related to real-time animal welfare monitoring across the food chain (on farm, during transport, and at slaughter). The present survey is the first step to map how animal welfare monitoring currently works by identifying which information is collected, by whom, how often, through which channels (e.g., inspections, records, automated systems), under what conditions, and how it is used.
SoA 25 partners are contacting you because competent authorities and policy makers play a central role in enacting animal welfare legislations and executing official controls. Your experience is key to understand what currently works, what information is available, and what could support timelier, data driven animal welfare monitoring.
Collected data will be managed following the EUPAH&W (https://www.eupahw.eu/privacy-policy for more information) and Anses (2016/679 EU regulation) GDPR. Data will be stored, analysed and reported in an anonymous way.
Please feel free to share this survey with any relevant competent authorities and policy makers.
We would be grateful to fill this survey by Friday 17th of July for first analyses of the responses. The survey will remain open after this date.
Thank you in advance for your participation,
On behalf of soa25.eupahw@anses.fr
