UFAW, the Universities Federation for Animal Welfare, is an UK based registered charity that works with the animal welfare science community worldwide to develop and promote improvements in the welfare of farm, companion, laboratory, captive wild animals and those with which we interact in the wild, through scientific and educational activity.
To this end, UFAW:
• Promotes and supports developments in the science and technology that underpin advances in animal welfare, including the funding of research through its programme of grants, awards and scholarships.
• Promotes education in animal care and welfare.
• Provides information, organises symposia, conferences and meetings, publishes books, videos, technical reports and the international quarterly scientific journal Animal Welfare.
• Provides expert advice to governments and other organisations and helps to draft and amend laws and guidelines.
• Enlists the energies of animal keepers, scientists, veterinarians, lawyers and others who care about animals.
