WDA Sections

---

The WDA constitution provides for membership subdivisions or Sections for members who have common scientific interests or share common geographical boundaries, and a number of WDA sections have been organized over the last several decades. The Australasian Section, established in 1973, was the first WDA section. Other geographic sections that have thrived include the Nordic Section established in 1987 and the European Section established in 1993. Each of these sections elects their own officers, holds a seat on the WDA Council, convenes meetings within their respective geographic regions, and publishes newsletters. Another section, the Wildlife Veterinarian Section was established in 1980 and is comprised of people who are members of both the WDA and the American Association of Wildlife Veterinarians. The Wildlife Veterinarian Section also elects its own officers, holds a seat on the WDA Council, publishes its own ewsletter, and convenes its annual meetings in conjunction with either the WDA or the American Association of Zoo Veterinarians. The sections of WDA unite common interests and bridge disparate geographic regions. The WDA encourages the formation of geographic sections.
