The awards were sponsored by our key client, Ceva Santé Animale and Good Call Media’s Co-owner, Nik Wood, was on stage to host the event in front of a excellent crowd at San Jose’s International Convention Centre in the capital.
This was the 3rd edition of the awards co-created by the World Veterinary Association (WVA) and Ceva Santé Animale (Ceva) to promote ever better international standards of animal welfare by rewarding 6 veterinarians and one veterinary student.
The Award ceremony took place during the 35th World Veterinary Association Congress on 28th April 2019 in San Jose, Costa Rica where the selected winners were invited to receive the WVA Animal Welfare Award and a monetary prize of 5.000 Euros.

The Global Animal Welfare Awards recognise and reward veterinarians who in their daily lives contribute to the protection and welfare of animals and have provided outstanding and exemplary welfare-related services to animals, animal owners, fellow veterinarians and the public.
Following the success of the WVA Animal Welfare Awards in 2017 and 2018, Ceva and the WVA incollaboration with the International Veterinary Students’ Association (IVSA) this year agreed to expand the scope of the awards by adding a new category recognising a veterinary student. Animal welfare is more and more a central societal issue and its inclusion within the training of young veterinarians is key to improving global standards.
