LifeStock has hosted more than 60 workshops in Iraq, aimed at connecting farmers with veterinarians, training veterinarians in improved necropsy and sampling procedures, and improving the government surveillance system.
Our training classes in Iraq expanded to many locations
Starting off with indoor classes…
… being recognized…
then teaching spreads through the countryside.
Teaching continued through different classes…
…with lots of studying…
…lots of questions…
…and there were many who received special certificates.
Managing a large project in Iraq...
Our goal is to enhance government veterinarians’ awareness of and response to transboundary and zoonotic pathogens.
