Animal Biosecurity RD&E Investment Showcase 4 November - NABRDES Annual Forum
About this event
The National Animal Biosecurity Research, Development and Extension Strategy (NABRDES) is managed by Animal Health Australia and aims to promote collaboration of livestock industries to reduce duplication and improve efficiency in the RD&E space. A key output from the NABRDES is to produce an annual forum to identify opportunities for collaboration and determine RD&E priorities.
The Animal Biosecurity Investment Showcase is being held on the 4th of November before the Australian Biosecurity 2030 Workshop, and aims to provide a platform in which cross-sectoral topics can be discussed and opportunities for collaboration will be identified, presented and driven by the NABRDES Implementation Committee (IC).
The Showcase is open to all involved in the animal biosecurity, health and welfare space, and strongly encourages attendees to prepare their biosecurity RD&E ideas and priorities leading into the event. Two key topic areas will be discussed at the Showcase which will include break-out room discussions to develop RD&E project ideas. These project ideas will be prioritised by the NABRDES IC, made available to Showcase participants for collaborative input to develop into full project proposals, and presented for co-investment. These key topic areas are:
• The three Ds- destruction, disposal and decontamination planning at different scales (property, regional, whole of supply chain).
• Social science- Understanding and improving biosecurity using social science approaches for better animal, enterprise and industry health.
