RAWC trainers held a workshop at the OIE 3rd Stray dog Workshop for Balkan countries

dsc00798During April 2018, RAWC has received the invitation from the World Organisation for Animal Health (OiE) for DPM Trainers speak at the 3rd Stray dog Workshop for Balkan countries, in Belgrade, Serbia which we gladly accepted. All our five trainers held a combined two hour workshop for participants at the OiE Regional Workshop on the topic on how to establish Dog population counting survey and setting indicators for dog population management.

After the identification of the Impacts and Indicators participants were engaged in several exercises such as identification of the Unbiased routes for counting dogs and development of socio-demographic questions for the face to face interviews.
