I am a 2009 RVC graduate and am currently working on a number of different initiatives with the eMedia department. Having recently taken a trip to East Africa, I am now involved with a LIDC and DFID funded development education initiative, teaching 1st to 3rd year BVetMed students about vets' roles as global citizens.
