About

Veterinarians Without Borders - Canada works with vulnerable populations to foster the health of animals, people, and the environments in which they interact.

Working to increase animal health, ecosystem health, and human health which are deeply connected, VWB/VSF seeks solutions that address the root causes of the challenges facing disadvantaged communities. By sharing our skills and expertise in animal and ecosystem health, we strive to help improve human health, food production systems, and promote sustainable livelihoods. Working in Africa and Asia with a focus on increasing the livelihoods of farmers via increased animal health and community health, we are also working in isolated northern Canadian communities to support the implementation of sustainable animal health service delivery.

UN Sustainable Development Goals

  • No poverty

    End poverty in all its forms everywhere

  • Zero hunger

    End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture

  • Gender equality

    VWB/VSF projects help create good jobs for women with an aptitude for animal care through training as Community Animal Health Workers (CAHWs). Because women generally do the bulk of the work caring for animals, including cattle and other large animals traditionally owned by men, many have the knowledge and aptitude to excel as CAHWs, yet men continue to dominate the field. VWB/VSF projects help women move into this occupation by providing a good income and a position of respect in the community.

  • Industry, innovation and infrastructure

    Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation

  • Reduced inequalities

    Reduce inequality within and among countries

  • Climate action

    Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts*

  • Peace, justice and strong institutions

    Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels

  • Partnerships for the goals

    Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development
