Wow! What an amazing summit! The National Alliance of State Agricultural and Animal Emergency Programs held their 2019 summit in Belluvue, Washington State and I had the honour to present on lessons on animal disaster response in New Zealand.

I was very humbled to be asked to present my research at an encore session later in the summit.

It was also great to hear research being presented by fellow New Zealand researchers Prof. Chris Riley and Dr. Steve De Grey (below).

A big thanks to the following organisations who made my presentation at this summit including:

University of Otago

Bushfire & Natural Hazards Collaborative Research Centre

International Fund for Animal Welfare

American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty of Animals

Animal Evac New Zealand

Public Safety Institute
