The European Enforcement Network Of Animal Welfare Lawyers And Animal Welfare Commissioners Launch Website

The Website of the European Enforcement Network of Animal Welfare Lawyers and Animal Welfare Commissioners was officially launched by VIER PFOTEN / FOUR PAWS on Tuesday 22 January 2013, in Brussels. The website, created with the partnership of Stiftung für das Tier im Recht, Deutsche juristische Gesellschaft für Tierschutzrecht (DJGT), and the Research Group ADS/ALS of the Universitat Aut?noma de Barcelona (UAB) is a platform for the exchange of legal facts and knowledge as well as practical political experience related to animal welfare enforcement structures and tools in the Member States. Target groups are Animal Welfare lawyers, Animal Welfare Commissioners, Animal Welfare Ombudspersons, Veterinarians, Politicians, Animal Welfare Organisations. Thanks to this user friendly website, with few clicks the user will be able to access to identified EU animal welfare legislation enforcement challenges as well to the level of enforcement of the Member States. Marlene Wartenberg, Director of EPO, stated “The website has been welcomed as a very good practical and educational tool, by representatives of the Cabinet and of the Animal Welfare Unit of the EU Commission, DG SANCO, by members of National Permanent Representations as well by NGOs. This is an encouraging start”. The Enforcement Network Website is available at http://www.lawyersforanimalprotection.eu
