WHML.ORG’s veterinary framework includes clinical science, nutrition, genetics, disease research and welfare. The field considers animals in different settings, from companion animals to agricultural and wider ecological contexts. Those differences matter when a scientific finding or professional approach is discussed.
Overview
Welcome to the veterinary sciences section of WHML.ORG! Promote the health and well-being of animals and, consequently, human societies. The World Health, Medical and Life Sciences Organization (WHML.ORG) is a non-profit organization that provides a globally influential platform in the field of veterinary sciences. Founded in the Netherlands in 2000 by professors, academics, scientists, and health professionals, WHML.ORG now operates in nine regions around the world: Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Oceania, the Caribbean, North America, Central America, and South America. WHML.ORG is committed to promoting and supporting education, research, publishing, and volunteer activities in the field of veterinary sciences.
What is veterinary science?
Veterinary Science is a field of study aimed at protecting the health and welfare of animals, diagnosing, treating, and preventing diseases. This field includes various subdisciplines such as Veterinary Medicine, Animal Nutrition, Animal Genetics, Animal Diseases, Animal Welfare, and Public Health. Veterinary Science aims to improve the health and welfare of animals ranging from farm animals to pets, wildlife to laboratory animals.
Subfields of veterinary science
Veterinary Medicine
Deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of animal diseases. Includes topics such as clinical practice, surgery, pharmacology, and pathology.
Animal Nutrition
A science that studies the nutritional needs and diets of animals. Includes topics such as ration formulation, nutritional supplements, and feed management.
Animal Genetics
A science that studies the genetic structure and hereditary characteristics of animals. Includes topics such as genetic diseases, breeding, and genetic engineering.
Animal Diseases
Studies infectious and non-infectious diseases seen in animals. Includes subfields such as epidemiology, virology, bacteriology, and parasitology.
Animal Welfare
Aims to improve the quality of life and well-being of animals. Includes topics such as animal behavior, ethics, and human-animal relations.
Public Health
Studies zoonotic diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans and their relationship with public health. Includes topics such as food safety, zoonotic diseases, and veterinary public health programs.
Education and academic programs
WHML.ORG’s published programme description covers academic programmes in the field of Veterinary Sciences. These programs provide educational opportunities for students by collaborating with accredited universities and research institutions worldwide. Programs are available at the undergraduate, master’s, and doctorate levels. In addition, professional development courses and certification programs are also offered. These programs help Veterinary Science professionals update their knowledge and skills and advance in their careers. National or international recognition, accreditation, admissions and the awarding institution must be established for each programme. These institutional descriptions do not confer a degree or professional licence through website registration.
Scientific research and publishing
WHML.ORG encourages and supports scientific research in the field of Veterinary Sciences. Our organization provides a platform for researchers by publishing scientific journals and organizing international conferences. In this way, new discoveries and innovative methods are shared worldwide. Our scientific journals include peer-reviewed articles, research reports, and review papers. By offering research scholarships and grants, we enable young researchers to realize their projects.
Volunteering and civil society activities
WHML.ORG promotes volunteerism and civil society activities in the field of Veterinary Sciences. Our volunteers provide support to communities with limited access to veterinary services and education around the world. These activities range from veterinary education programs to free clinic services. Our volunteers share their knowledge and experience in the field of Veterinary Sciences, contributing to efforts to improve community health and animal welfare.
International and national collaborations
The published source describes the following collaboration scope: WHML.ORG collaborates with various international and national veterinary organizations around the world. These collaborations aim to increase the sharing of knowledge and resources in the field of Veterinary Sciences. We work closely with the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations (UN), and other global health and science organizations to contribute to the development of global health and veterinary policies. In addition, we support the development of solutions to local veterinary issues by collaborating with local veterinary organizations and universities. The named relationships are retained as source-reported descriptions; the current agreement, project scope and status are confirmed through institutional records.
