Nestlé said in a statement that through the GCAW the companies want to address current systemic barriers to change, share best practices as well as accelerate the development of standards and progress on key welfare issues.

GCAW is the world’s first global food industry-led collaboration uniting major companies and animal welfare experts working towards improving standards for animals at scale to meet consumer demand for food products from animals reared in systems that promote good welfare.

GCAW plans to publish a collective action agenda in the first half of 2019, focusing on five priority work streams, including cage-free policies and improved broiler chicken welfare.
