What we want to achieve
The mission of WAAVP-AN is to promote best practices for managing veterinary parasites in Africa and disseminate this knowledge to its members and communities affected by animal parasites. WAAVP-AN will support its members, including researchers and other communities by providing a central repository of information and expertise in veterinary parasitology within the continent; and by funding activities aiming at addressing key priority areas in veterinary parasitology in Africa.
WAAVP congress in Chennai, India
The WAAVP-AN was launched at the WAAVP Congress in Chennai, India in August 2023. The African symposium is proposed as one of the ways through which WAAVP-AN will achieve maximum visibility and create awareness of the strategic objectives, upcoming opportunities for grants, and collaborations with veterinary parasitologists and related organizations locally and globally.
