The Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) congratulates Australian Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, and the Albanese government on their second election victory.

The excitement is building as the veterinary profession counts down to the highly anticipated 2025 Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) National Conference, returning to Sydney for the first time in over 20 years, from 12–15 May.

The Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) welcomes the National Party’s Federal Election Agriculture Policy, which identifies the urgent need to boost Australia’s veterinary workforce.

Veterinarians are essential to Australia’s animals, people, and economy. This World Veterinary Day, the Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) is celebrating the teamwork behind animal health through the global theme: “Animal Health Takes a Team.”

With the federal election campaign at its halfway mark, the Australian Veterinary Association (AVA) is calling on all political parties to recognise and invest in the veterinary profession - a profession that plays an essential role in protecting Australia’s public health, economic strength, and the wellbeing of communities across the country.
