Descripción
Animal welfare is coming to be recognized as highly relevant to success in international development. It is integral to programmes to improve animal health, to develop livestock production, to respond to natural disasters where animals are involved, and to improve the fit between the genetic constitution of animals and the environments in which they are kept. Aware of the above, FAO has decided to give more explicit and strategic attention to animal welfare and to guide its activities, it h as convened an Expert Meeting to provide specific advice on ‘Capacity building to implement good animal welfare practices’. The strenuous and collaborative work of the experts, together with resource persons from the main relevant institution involved in animal welfare and FAO staff, resulted in this report.
