Action plans to be launched at Vet Futures Summit

On 4 July Vet Futures, a joint project between us and the British Veterinary Association, will be holding a Vet Futures Summit at the Royal Veterinary College in London.

The day of discussion and debate will include the launch of the Vet Futures and VN Futures Action Plans, ambitious blueprints which aim to deliver the continued sustainability of the veterinary professions.

The day’s talks will cover such varied subjects as animal health and welfare, veterinary careers, sustainable businesses, One Health, leadership and vets’ wider roles in society.

The event is the latest milestone in the Vet Futures project, and follows the publication in November 2015 of the Vet Futures report, Taking charge of our future: a vision for the veterinary profession for 2030. The Report identified 34 specific recommendations and, since publication, the Vet Futures Action Group has been working to turn these recommendations into the Action Plan. Meanwhile, the VN Futures project has come into being and will showcase its own Action Plan at the Summit.
