This contribution describes the history and activity of the Swiss 3R Competence Centre (3RCC), which has been founded in 2018. Among the most relevant activities, a call for project proposals on 3Rs was launched in 2018, with 47 proposals received for selection, followed by a call for nominations for a 3Rs award, which will be announced in Sept. 2019. Implementation of a 3Rs educational program has also been carried out since 2018. The 3RCC is also developing an e-Learning module to promote the implementation of alternatives to animal testing. Finally, the centre activity is addressed to help fostering good experimental design and biostatistics practices and support.
