In 2022, the Dublin Declaration on the societal role of livestock farming encouraged animal scientists to alert policymakers and the public to the importance of basing dietary recommendations and promoting an image of livestock farming on sound scientific evidence. In October 2024, animal, environment and social scientists renewed and deepened their commitment by publishing the Denver Call to Action https://www.dublin-declaration.org/fr/lappel-a-action-de-denver at the Second International Summit on the Societal Role of Meat and Livestock, where current scientific knowledge about livestock farming was presented in a synthetic manner. This call is addressed to policymakers worldwide to commit to plurality and rigor in evidence-based decision-making.
