Abstract
In 1999, AGRIBEA was set up to coordinate animal welfare research conducted by INRA (French Institute for Agronomy Research). Initially made up of some forty researchers, AGRIBEA expanded rapidly both within and outside INRA, to include 128 members, of which less than two thirds are from INRA, the other members coming from universities or technical institutes. AGRIBEA organizes scientific seminars every quarter, on topics of general interest focused around animal welfare : pain, emotions, ethics in human-animal relations, etc. AGRIBEA also stimulated new research avenues to address the question of mental states in animals. AGRIBEA improves the visibility of INRA work within the institution, as well as of all French research, thereby helping exchanges within large international research projects.
