دور المنظمة العالمية للصحة الحيوانية في تكريس مفهوم رفاه الحيوان

Abstract EN

The issue of animal welfare requires a wide regulatory policy at the international, regional and national levels.

Many factors, such as the intensification of animal production, climate change, and the development of scientific knowledge have led to a demand to take into account the sensory and behavioral aspect of the animal.

After a request from member states, the World Organisation for Animal Health became the reference authority for animal welfare, because it has sufficient experience in drafting international animal health standards, which helped to adopt international standards in the field of animal welfare and to hold international conferences in order to establish this modern concept and raise awareness among the members of the organization Especially in the ence of an international legal text on animal welfare.
