On December 15th, 2025, the four EURCAWs organized an online workshop entitled EURCAW novel ‘welfare inspection support tool’ for the EU Animal Welfare Member State official inspectors/officials. A total of 13 participants attended the workshop. Excluding EURCAW members, 8 participants from 8 EU Member States were present.

The workshop used a co-design process to ensure that the tool addressed the established needs of official inspectors, as an end-user. Three key elements were explored through the co-design process:

-  The primary purposes for using the inspection tool.

-  The types of content official inspectors expect to access through the tool.

-  The technical and technological features that should be incorporated into the tool.
