Guest guest Posted February 19, 2003 Report Share Posted February 19, 2003 ****INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ANIMAL WELFARE IN BEIJING, CHINA, 23-27 AUGUST 2004**** In conjunction with the International Zoological Conference (IZC) to be held in Beijing, China from 23-27 August 2004, I am planning to organize the first symposium on animal welfare to be held at the IZC along with the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) in Beijing. The website for the IZC is www.icz.ioz.ac.cn. If you are interested would you please send me your name, address, phone/fax numbers, and a title and short abstract (100 words or less) of your proposed presentation or poster. *Please do not send attachments - please paste information in your message.* Currently there is no financial support but that might change. Please let me know if you will require financial support. This truly is a remarkable opportunity to put forth and to discuss important ideas about animal protection in education, research, zoos, and conservation. I visited China in November 2002 and met many wonderful and very enthusiastic people who are eager to help animals. I will need your proposals by 15 March 2003. There will be about 10 oral presentations of about 15 minutes each and 10 posters. There will be ample time for discussion and to meet researchers and others from more than 40 countries. Already more than 200 people from numerous countries have signed up for the conference. I will review proposals along with representatives from IFAW. Thank you, Marc Bekoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
