3R Fair – Experience innovation, help shape the future

On 15 April 2026, the 3R community will meet at Forum Fribourg for the NRP 79 3R Fair. The event offers a unique opportunity to experience the latest developments in the 3R principles (Replace, Reduce, Refine) first-hand and help shape them.

Look forward to a varied programme with hands-on demonstrations, videos and presentations that will provide a lively insight into the current research work of the national research programme NFP 79 – ‘Advancing 3R’. Discover innovative methods and forward-looking approaches that contribute to making research more sustainable, efficient and animal-friendly. Take the opportunity to talk to researchers in person, ask questions and discuss the next steps for sustainably strengthening the 3Rs in Switzerland.
