What is Animal Watch?
Animal Watch (Observatório Animal) is a platform created and managed by Alianima to give visibility to animal welfare policies made by the food industry in Brazil, in order to facilitate monitoring by the sector, consumers, research institutions, and government agencies.
Animal welfare commitments
Several companies in the food industry that use animal-derived ingredients, such as eggs and pork, have made public commitments to adopt animal welfare improvements in their production chains.
Learn how animal welfare contributes to most of the UN Sustainable Development Goals
No Poverty
Job creation and higher income are achievable with the adoption of good animal welfare practices.
No Hunger and Sustainable Agriculture
Better animal health and nutrition can result in increased productivity, product quality and value, access to new markets, as well as reduced losses, waste, and veterinary care costs. Small producers must be included to promote their purchasing power.
Good Health and Well-Being
Increased immunity in animals, leading to resistance to zoonoses, allows for reduced use of antimicrobials, thereby decreasing the risk of multidrug resistance in animals and humans.
Clean Water and Sanitation
Reducing the use of pesticides in monocultures for feed production promotes less pollution of groundwater and marine ecosystems, reducing contamination of the water supply.
Affordable and Clean Energy
Animal waste can be used as biofuel, having less impact on the environment and creating a renewable energy source.
Decent Work and Economic Growth
Implementing animal welfare in production chains increases the economic value of products, improves rural worker satisfaction, maintains appropriate animal management; with animals adapted to their behavioral nature, reducing animal stress, as well as occupational risks for workers. Small producers should be assisted in increasing productivity through better animal health, welfare, and nutrition care.
Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
There are business opportunities to develop new systems and technologies that also improve animal welfare.
Reduced Inequalities
Global alignment of animal welfare standards reduces inequalities and enables increased trade in products with a high level of animal welfare, while also avoiding trade inequalities that leave some countries behind. Additionally, financial loans to industries and small producers may be conditioned on animal welfare improvements.
Responsible Consumption and Production
Decreased consumption of animal products and preference for more responsible brands favor the implementation of animal welfare practices and contribute to reducing environmental impacts. Additionally, responsible and restricted use of antimicrobials requires higher levels of animal welfare, while also minimizing antimicrobial resistance.
Action Against Global Climate Change
Greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) and deforestation by agribusiness need to be reduced. Climate change increases the risk of animals being exposed to new diseases, which can lead to zoonoses, epidemics, and pandemics, and, in most cases, it’s not possible to guarantee that they will be rescued or protected in the event of natural disasters.
