Global Efforts

A global trend to implement country-wide animal research openness agreements began in 2014 with the Concordat on Openness on Animal Research in the UK.  The effort, led by Understanding Animal Research, provided a model for subsequent openness agreements.  

Click on the items below to learn more about each agreement.

You can also learn more about global transparency agreements at:

 Understanding Animal Research  and the European Animal Research Association .

​We are members of the research community from both public and private organizations that conduct or support research in the United States. 

 

We pursue greater openness as the foundation upon which institutions that are involved in research, teaching and/or testing with animals will be able to better enhance understanding about why, when and how animals are needed to advance medicine and science.

 

We believe openness will help to maintain public support for essential animal research in valuable medical outcomes for humans and animals.
