We believe that the treatment of farm animals is not only an ethical issue but one that connects to other issues such as food safety, human health and antimicrobial resistance, as well as environmental issues such as carbon emissions, water supply and land use #AnimalWelfare

One of the key objectives of the GCAW is to prioritize welfare issues and develop roadmaps for industry change while supporting producers in implementing strong animal welfare practices. Read more about our work at https://t.co/5Y4EBmtWtx

The @FAO estimates that 200 million more tonnes of beef and other livestock will be needed by 2050 to meet the needs of the world's expected 9-billion-strong population. The GCAW members join forces to advance animal welfare standards throughout the global food supply chain.

The GCAW has been formed by its member companies to collectively address systemic barriers to improving animal welfare, accelerate the development of standards and drive progress on key welfare issues #AnimalWelfare #foodindustry #foodservice

GCAW's initial five priority work streams will be cage-free policies, improved broiler chicken welfare, farmed fish welfare, antimicrobial resistance,
and global standards for transportation and slaughter #AnimalWelfare #foodindustry #foodservice
