Perspectives in Animal Health and Welfare is a multi-disciplinary electronic journal of research papers and other outputs covering all aspects of the fields of animal health and welfare, including, but not restricted to animal diseases (including zoonotic diseases), parasitology, nutrition, behaviour, anaesthesia and analgesia, breeding and reproduction, One Health, and social sciences related to the veterinary industry.

The journal aims to provide an opportunity for the publication of outputs by, and for, veterinary nurses, veterinary technicians, and allied veterinary professionals.

Co-edited by Unitec’s Laura Harvey and Otago Polytechnic’s Kristina Naden, the journal will primarily publish research papers, short reports of up to 2,000 words, literature reviews, and high-quality case studies. All manuscripts will be subject to anonymous double-blind peer review, prior to acceptance and publication. Papers will be published online as soon as they are accepted, with the first issue being a collation of papers. The inaugural issue will be published in September 2022, and we are accepting manuscript submissions now.

If you have a manuscript that you would like to submit for publication, Author Guidelines are available here: http://www.unitec.ac.nz/epress/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Perspectives-in-AHW_Author-Instructions.pdf
