Europe’s animal testing legislative reform agenda boosted by grassroots concerns – Euractiv

With its first commissioner specifically responsible for animal welfare within sight, Europe is responding directly to public concerns for animals, not least when it comes to animal testing.

This special report takes a closer look at the complex issues surrounding animal welfare, animal testing, the lobbying dynamics influencing public policy, and the stakeholder voices shaping next-generation legislation.

The upcoming 2024 Annual Conference of the European Partnership for Alternative Approaches to Animal Testing (EPAA) will take place on Wednesday, 13 November 2024 in Brussels. Euractiv will be covering this event.

It aims to give participants insights on the EPAA’s achievements in 2024. The winners of the EPAA 3Rs Science Prize will also be announced. In addition, the potential to maximise NAM uptake under existing EU chemical and pharmaceutical regulations will be discussed during 2 panels.

EPAA members from industry and the European Commission, stakeholders from European and international institutions, academic or research institutes, NGOs and national regulatory authorities will attend.
