We have organized six lectures 1. Current trends of zoonoses, 2. Rabies, 3. Salmonellosis, 4. Dermatophytosis, 5. Echinococcosis, 6.

Symposium Ⅱ “Animals Unlock People’s Hearts ~ CAPP Activities Exceed 15,000 Sessions”

OrganizerJapanese Animal Hospital Association

 

Venue: Kitano Meeting Room

 

Supporting Company: Royal Canin Japon

 

Purpose: JAHA (Japanese Animal Hospital Association) began its Companion Animal Partnership Program (CAPP) in 1986. Since then it has provided AAA (Animal Assisted Activity), AAT (Animal Assisted Therapy) or AAE (Animal Assisted Education) on more than 15,000 separate occasions across these three fields. Through such activities it is clear that even regular companion animals living in ordinary homes with their owners (the volunteers) can make a major contribution to the people’s welfare, medicine and education.

 

Symposium Ⅲ “The Cycle of Violence: The Connection Between Violence to Humans and Animals”

OrganizerJapan Animal Welfare SocietyJapanese Coalition for Animal Welfare

 

Venue: Ikuta Meeting Room

 

Purpose: In recent years the idea of including animal abuse in the contemplation of violent acts toward human beings is gaining wider acceptance. An attempt to consider acts of animal abuse coexisting with child abuse, DV, the abuse of the elderly as well as with other violent crimes will be made with input from professionals in the field.

OrganizerSecretariat

 

Venue: Ikuta Meeting Room

 

Supporting Company: Nestle Japan Ltd., Nestle Purina PetCare

 

Purpose: Pet owners in Japan are supported by two key pillars of
society, ‘industry’ and ‘welfare’. But our population will soon comprise 40% elderly and 37% single people. So a great challenge is arising to support a society in which people and animals are together all the time. Our discussions will consider and forecast the great potential and bright future ahead for people and animals.

 

Symposium Ⅴ “One World, One Health — What is Happening in Polar Areas?

OrganizerThe Japanese Society of Zoo and Wildlife MedicineJapan Bear Network

 

Venue: Kitano Meeting Room

 

Purpose: Environmental change has a big impact on much of our wildlife world-wide. Global warming has already caused dramatic change to the polar environments, and the wildlife has suffered, including polar bears. We will be sharing information about what is happening at these distant sites, and consider how to secure our future.

In recent years damage to animal industry sites, such as livestock and feed production sites, has also been recognized. This symposium will discuss th e actual damage to animal industry sites and the relationship this has with agriculture and forestry damage. Potential measures to tackle the problems and ways to co-exist with wild animals will be considered.

■ Symposium Ⅶ “Advanced Veterinarian Technologies and Terminal Medical Care for Pets (incl. Euthanasia)”

Organizer: Japanese Society for Applied Animal Behaviour

 

Venue: Waraku Meeting Room

 

Purpose: With pets now being regarded as ‘members of the family’ and ‘members of society’, expectations for the quality and options of their medical treatment have risen.

Symposium Ⅷ “Stock raising Now! Food safety and animal welfare”

OrganizerThe Japanese Society of Veterinary Science

Purpose: Although achievement of food safety has long been called for in farm animal breeding, the situation where animal welfare must be taken into consideration is now imminent. In this symposium, we will be discussing on whether welfare of farm animals and safety of the animal products are a trade-off (or incompatible) or whether they can have a synergistic relationship, thereby addressing how the farm animal breeding of Japan should cope with the current situation.
