The purpose of the Study is ‘to provide the necessary data and analyse the impact of the EU international activities dedicated to animal welfare on the competitiveness of EU livestock producers and operators’. The outcomes of the Study are meant to be used by the Commission, together with additional information, to prepare a report reviewing the international activities on AW, and evaluating their impact on the competitiveness of EU producers and operators, as foreseen in the EU Strategy for the Protection and Welfare of Animals 2012-2015. In order to achieve this purpose, the Study has had a twofold objective, having a descriptive nature, on the one hand, and an evaluative one, on the other. On the descriptive side, the exercise has reconstructed and classified the activities carried out by the European Commission to promote the animal welfare agenda at the international level and foster the adoption of the EU/OIE animal welfare (AW) standards by its trade partners. This has included both the initiatives initiated and implemented by various Commission services and the activities implemented within the framework of agreements or in collaboration with multilateral organisations, notably OIE and FAO. On top of that, the study has identified and described the financial assistance provided by international finance institutions (IFI) and export credit agencies (ECA) to the industries affected by compliance with AW standards in their operations, and the degree to which EU AW standards have been used as reference benchmarks in their operations. On the more evaluative side, the study has assessed the impact AW standards have had on the competitiveness of EU producers and operators vis-à-vis non-EU operators, as well as their impact on non-EU livestock producers and operators in selected non-EU Countries as regards their competitiveness with EU exports in non-EU markets. Moreover, the study has analysed more in detail the contribution given by the EU in influencing the drafting of OIE standards, as well as the extent to which international activities in the field of AW have contributed to the implementation of these standards within the EU, when there are no specific EU AW standards in place (e.g. on dairy cows).
