The Vanuatu Dog Population Management and One Health initiative is a multifaceted project which aims to improve the health and well-being of free-roaming dogs, and reduce environmental and public health impacts.
Through collaboration with local partners, VBB hope to establish a sustainable and ultimately, locally-owned, dog population management program in Vanuatu. Our pilot project incorporates a census, humane animal handling training for local animal handlers, VetTrain surgical training initiatives for local veterinary and para-veterinary staff, and community engagement.
Free-roaming dog populations impact animal welfare, food security and public health:
