WAVA is an international association representing and promoting all aspects of veterinary anatomy. It's objectives include to amalgamate those working physically or theoretically in any field of domestic animal anatomy, be it gross, microscopic or ultrastructural; to encourage the study of domestic animal anatomy; to promote research and dissemination of new knowledge of veterinary anatomy; to encourage the use of modern methods of teaching in veterinary anatomy; to promote better knowledge of anatomy in applied science and to encourage exchange of information and contacts with all interested persons and organizations. In particular, it encourages active collaboration with the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (human anatomy) and the World Veterinary Association.

he Union of International Associations (UIA) has been documenting global civil society since 1907. Today, we are the oldest and most comprehensive independent source of reliable information on international associations and a unique repository for current and historical data on their work.

The International Veterinary Students' Association (IVSA) is a student-run organization representing over 38.000 students from over seventy countries. Our Association strives to benefit the animals and humans of the world by harnessing the potential and dedication of veterinary students to promote the international application of veterinary skills, education, and knowledge. Hereby, one of its main goals is to raise the overall standard of veterinary education worldwide.
We would love to invite you to be a part of our Association.
Being involved with IVSA is an outstanding way to help our members to gain knowledge, network with other students worldwide, and advance their professional careers. Members engaged in an official role within IVSA gain essential leadership skills that allow them to initiate change and become qualified health professionals.

Since ages, human beings have been dependent on animals in many ways. A large number of them (buffalo, cattle, sheep, goat, poultry, etc.) are of outstanding economic importance due to their ability to produce essential food items (milk, meat, eggs, etc.). Others contribute in several ways to meet various needs of the society, e.g. horses, camels, donkeys and mules are used for transportation of goods and people and in different types of sports (racing, polo, shows, etc.). In cities the number of dogs and cats are increasing, specially in smaller size families with disposable income. In these ways, domesticated animals have become of primary importance for millions of landless, small and marginal rural land holders of Pakistan. These animals are their most important capital reserves (60-70%) and are ensuring their family subsistence and socio-economic security. Their role as foreign exchange earners through running of various urban markets/industries is also of definite significance. Availability of livestock and their products/byproduct s in required amounts is, therefore, essential both for food, national security and recreation.

The Pakistan Veterinary Medical Association (PVMA) plays a pivotal role in ensuring the well-being of animals across Pakistan. Situated at 41-Mauve Area near EOBI House, G-10/4 G 10 Markaz G-10, Islamabad, Islamabad Capital Territory, Pakistan, the PVMA serves as a central hub for veterinary professionals and advocates for animal health throughout the country.
