The JMICAWE team and colleagues have just
returned from delivering successful workshops at Kerala Veterinary and Animal
Sciences University (KVASU) in India. Workshops ran for 4 days, starting with a
day focussing on developing and promoting best practise for high welfare
within veterinary clinics in India, and followed by workshops focussing on wildlife conservation.
In the era
where conservation science is emerging as one of the research priorities across
the Globe, Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University is planning to
identify the research priorities in this sector. The International workshop on “Identifying
Priority Areas in Wildlife Conservation and the Role of KVASU” began on 25th
November 2014 at its Pookode Campus. Faculty and students of KVASU attended the
Workshop, which was part of three years of multidisciplinary National and International
collaborative ventures developed by KVASU in various areas including Wildlife
science. Further collaborations and projects are now being planned in relation
to improving animal welfare in the future.
KVASU has already established MoUs for collaboration with the Kerala Forest
Research Institute, Kerala State Forest Department and the University of
Edinburgh and has completed a collaborative student research project involving
faculty of University of Calgary, Canada.
