The citizen panel will follow the OECD deliberative principles for good citizen engagement and will be implemented by an independent third-party secretariat consisting of We Do Democracy and the Democracy X Foundation. \nOn February 26\, the third session of the Citizen Panel participants will meet. The session is not open to the public. \nDenmark is the world’s largest producer of pork per capita\, and pig production is a central pillar of the Danish food industry. Better animal welfare in future pig production must be found by letting representative citizens identify the balances between rural and urban areas\, between consumer expectations and producer conditions in a global market\, and between economic sustainability and ethical responsibility. \nA citizens’ panel is a little sister to a citizens’ assembly \nA deliberative citizen panel draws on the same methodology and principles as a citizens’ assembly. The citizen panel differs in that there are fewer members\, less time to complete the task and a focus on producing recommendations for a defined challenge. The process is based on a focused core question that is determined in collaboration with the client. \nThe process is also based on the same principles as a citizens’ panel according to international practice\, with a focus on arm’s length to the client and adherence to the OECD principles of mandate\, transparency\, use of independent experts\, protection of citizens\, facilitation by an independent third-party secretariat and a clear commitment from the client on how to respond and act on the panel’s recommendations. \nFacts: \n\nStatistics Denmark is responsible for recruiting the 36 members across the country so that the panel reflects the Danish demographics\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Citizen Panel launches on January 15\, 2026\, with the 36 members meeting over two weekend sessions and three online sessions.\nThe final recommendations to the minister and the parliamentary committee are expected to be handed over in June 2026\nThe citizen panel has an independent professional advisory group consisting of Peter Sandøe (UCPH)\, Mickey Gjerris (UCPH) and Lene Juul Pedersen (AU) \nA third-party agreement is in place to ensure the independence of the citizen panel and a mandate committing the ministry to respond to the recommendations of the citizen panel within 6 months and again 24 months after the completion of the citizen panel\n\nRead more here on the ministry’swebsite \n  \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Time\nFebruary 26\, 2026 \nNOTE: This is a closed meeting. \n  URL:https://www.wedodemocracy.com/event/third-session-of-the-citizens-assembly-on-animal-welfare/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://www.wedodemocracy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/Borgerpanel-om-dyrevelfaerd.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
