Animal Management in Rural and Remote Indigenous Communities
Our Vision is to see Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities that are healthy and safe for people and their companion animals. Get InvolvedDonateAbout Us
AMRRIC (Animal Management in Rural and Remote Indigenous Communities) is a national not-for-profit organisation that works with remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to improve the health of their companion animals. In doing so, we are helping to create healthier, safer and happier communities.
Our Work
AMRRIC’s work focuses on companion animals. To date, the biggest need has been around dogs, which have been the focus of many of our resources and projects. However, recognising the increase in cats being kept as pets in remote communities, AMRRIC’s focus has broadened. We aim to teach Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Rural and Remote communities to properly manage their companion animals.
Resources
A significant component of AMRRIC’s work is education, capacity building and the sharing of knowledge. We have developed a range of outstanding resources to support our training workshop, school education programs and field programs.
