An opportunity for AVERT members to discuss the challenges and complex animal welfare issues faced during the bushfire response. Compounded by unprecedented levels of media and social media exposure and the resultant immense public pressure to achieve positive outcomes, your vitally important role as veterinary volunteers became even more challenging.
Please join us to hear Taronga’s Dr Campbell-Ward’s insightful and detailed factual overview and to share your experiences and thoughts with your colleagues.
Registration for the event is FREE, and attendees may wish to express their support by donating to Taronga’s Wildlife Crisis Appeal.
If you are unable to attend but would like to view a recording, please sign up here and we will be in touch once the event closes.
Your valuable input will be anonymously incorporated into Dr Campbell-Ward’s ongoing work reviewing how human response and ethical conflicts in catastrophes impact on wild animal welfare and the well-being of veterinary and animal care personnel.
