Visseren-Hamakers (2020): The 18th Sustainable Development Goal
18th Sustainable Development Goal on animal health, welfare and rights.
The interest of the individual animal should be integrated into our definition of sustainable
development and the SDGs, so we can develop one overarching global guidance system on all aspects
of sustainable development, namely human, environmental and animal concerns.
At the moment the relationship between sustainable development and animal issues are complex
and the debates have evolved in a rather disconnected manner. But there are certainly some
synergies and trade-offs.
Why neglected till now? SDG is a rather anthropocentric concept.
However, the relationships between humans and non-humans are changing: emerging values and
increasing recognition through initiatives, policies and laws around the world.
Sustainability and animal governance systems = the total of all governance instruments at a specific
level of governance, focused on sustainability concerns or animal health, animal welfare and animal
rights, respectively, with governance instruments defined as public, private and/or public-private
policies and rules.
Three issues most relevant for the relationship between sustainability and animal concerns:
1. Animal agriculture and aquaculture
Trade-off: greenhouse gas emissions lower in intensive and specialized systems than in
extensive, often more animal-friendly systems.
o Different governance systems aim at resolving these issues: ‘sustainable
intensification’, ‘ecological intensification’ or organic agriculture’.
2. Conservation
Protecting ecosystems and species
o Animal concerns: health and welfare during breeding and after release into the
wild, the often high mortality rate after release, the risk of disease.
Hunting and fishing (addressing illegal and unsustainable hunting, fishing and wildlife
trade, and promoting trophy hunting to finance conservation)
o Sustainable hunting is often promoted as part of conservation.
o Synergies: combatting poaching, wildlife crime, illegal, unreported and
unregulated fishing and overfishing.
Combatting Invasive Alien Species (IAS) (when individual animals are killed to conserve
other species or ecosystems)
o IAS are threat for native species.
o Main management strategies: prevention, for invasive animals: capturing and
killing.
o Trade-off are also among the concerns of different animals.
3. Use of animal testing in sustainability research
Animal testing is used e.g. to test the environmental toxicity of chemicals.
Significant progress: three R’s: reduction in number of animals, refinement of
experimental methods, replacement of animals with non-animal techniques

are made are among others:
