DESCRIPTION:AVMA is proud to host the 40th World Veterinary Association Congress in conjunction with AVMA Convention 2025.

Join us July 18-22\, in Washington\, D.C. at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center. It’s the premier veterinary event you don’t want to miss! \nEarly-bird rates have been extended!\nIn order to make AVMA Convention and the WVA Congress more accessible to the whole veterinary community\, we’ve dropped the cost of regular registration by $100! That means everyone can attend the veterinary event of the summer at the lowest possible rates. Don’t miss out on these savings. \nVirtual program\nCan’t make it to Washington\, D.C.? The virtual program lets you stream up to 200 hours of select CE sessions from the comfort of your home. Sessions can be viewed live or on demand and will be available through the end of the year.

SUMMARY:Conference - 5/11/26 to 5/13/26 - The Gathering 2026 - CARE (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:The Gathering is CARE’s annual multi-day conference bringing together community members\, practitioners\, researchers\, advocates\, and organizers working at the intersection of Human and Animal Well-being. \nAcross three days\, The Gathering creates space to examine how the Animal Welfare and Animal Protection fields have caused harm through exclusion\, bias\, and inequitable practices — and to collectively build pathways toward reform that honor both people and animals. \nGrounded in CARE’s core pillars — Intention\, Mobilization\, Peace\, Education\, Acknowledgment\, Compassion\, and Heart — this conference centers BIPOC leadership\, lived experience\, and community-based knowledge. Sessions move beyond theory to focus on practical tools\, shared learning\, and relationship-building that participants can bring back to their communities and institutions. \nThe Gathering is designed for those who understand that animal welfare cannot be separated from human well-being\, environmental justice\, and systemic equity. Programming will reflect CARE’s four divisions: \n\nResearch & Development\nNarrative & Truth Telling\nCommunity Animal CARE\nEnvironmental Justice & Policy\n\nThis is not a traditional conference. It is a space for honest dialogue\, accountability\, healing\, and action — built with accessibility\, care\, and community at the center. \nWEBSITE LINK: https://secure.qgiv.com/for/companionsandanimalsforreformandequity/event/thegathering4/
