6.1. Relations with Society

The REMA aims to respond to the social demand for a diminished use of animals in research, fundamentally on ethical grounds and in favor of a rational utilization of animal models. We believe that the REMA should count on the participation of those Associations and Societies interested in the wellbeing and protection of animals - such as the Association for the Defense of Animal Rights (ADAR)(Asociación para la Defensa de los Derechos de los Animales, ADDA), the Association for the Defense and Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ADPCA)(Asociación para la Defensa y Prevención de la Crueldad con los Animales, ADPCA), and the National Association for the Defense of Animals (NADA)(Asociación Nacional para la Defensa de los Animales, ANDA).
