The Award, which is to be presented annually during the WSAVA Congress, is awarded to a veterinarian who in the opinion of the judges has contributed meritorious service to the veterinary profession in the broadest sense, which may be as a general practitioner, an academic veterinary surgeon, or a veterinarian working in management or for a company.
Criteria
The judging committee will look for candidates with a history of serving the profession by taking voluntary roles on professional organizations over a period of years as well as exhibiting professional expertise within their working life. The award is international but the committee will consider strongly candidates from the WSAVA regions where the Congress is situated that year when making a choice for this award.
Nomination
Nominations for the 2024 awards will close on March 11, 2024.
