Australasian Society of Zoo Keeping Conference

Sunday 19 May to Thursday 23 May 2013

Building a future for wildlife; how what we do today impacts tomorrow

Australasian Society of Zoo KeepingWe are now accepting registrations from delegates wishing to attend the Australasian Society of Zoo Keeping (ASZK) conference hosted by Auckland Zoo.

Delegates are invited to submit an abstract for poster and paper presentations relevant to the conference theme.

Delegate enrichment

CheetahWe don't want to give away too much just yet but we are well underway with our planning! While attending the conference, there will be plenty of time to explore Auckland Zoo at your own pace.

After the daytime conference activities, there will be time for you to relax and chat with other delegates over a meal. Delegates will also have one evening to do as they choose (but don't worry, we have suggestions for you to choose from).

We also have something special planned for our last evening together but more information will be sent to delegates at a later date.
