Topic : Veterinaria
Type : Congresos
Topics : 1. History of veterinary associations
From the beginning of the nineteenth century onwards, national veterinary associations were established worldwide. Since then, these associations have played a role in the development of the veterinary sciences and the veterinary profession. During this congress papers are invited which will address the various aspects of the foundation and development of each nation’s chief veterinary association in more detail. Other subjects related to this theme are: discipline formation and professional interests, ideologies and scientific and societal goals, political influence, role in the development of national and international legislation, veterinary education and research, the relation with the state (legal protection of the profession, curriculum requirements), post academic training and specialisation, diff erentiation of tasks and responsibilities for veterinarians and other professionals active in veterinary medicine, development of a code for veterinarians and disciplinary committees, and differences between countries and cultures. This theme was chosen because of the 150th anniversary of the Royal Netherlands Veterinary Association, 1862-2012.

2. History of the World Veterinary Association (WVA)
Why and how was the WVA established? How was it organised? What were its main activities? Who were the main leaders of the WVA and what were their scientific and political goals and visions? What were stimulants and restraints in the relation between national veterinary associations and the WVA? How and why were international veterinary congresses organised? Which role did the WVA play in knowledge transfer and enriching veterinary knowledge between continents and nations?





3. Free communications
Presentations and posters on any subject in the history of veterinary medicine.
