GeneWatch UK is an independent, voluntary, not‐for‐profit organization formed in January 1998 and incorporated in May 1998. GeneWatch works to promote environmental, ethical, social, human health and animal welfare considerations in decision‐making about genetic engineering and other genetic technologies. GeneWatch is not opposed to genetic technologies in principle, but believes that public participation is crucial for robust and effective decision‐making. This can only take place in the context of openness, where debate is well informed and proper weight is attached to public concerns and aspirations for the future.
