 September 18-23, 202 The ICG2022 Conference offers a wide range of exhibiting and advertising opportunities for institutions and companies interested in goat farming. Our conference offers your organization many convenient and effective ways to get your product and/or service noticed by the attendees.
The benefits you can derive from exhibiting are unique because, unlike other segments of marketing campaigns, targeting a conference audience can be both selective and direct, allowing you to meet the delegates directly. We will offer booths of several sizes and exhibition ground space at the conference venue. Additionally, you can set up a personalized profile on the virtual event platform, and you may publish videos and brochures. We will encourage all attendees (physical and virtual) to set up user profiles on the virtual event platform. This way, attendees can easily find you, and you can effortlessly search their profiles and start conversations. Company representatives can answer participants’ questions in writing. You can also request meetings with each other. Even if both parties are there in person, the platform will help better manage your calendar.

 Dear IGA members,
On November 16th, the IGA held a virtual conference, “Goats of the World and World of Goats,” where the newly elected IGA Board of Directors was presented, and a new term in our association began. The main goal of this new Board of Directors, similarly to the previous one, is to make IGA stronger, follow the IGA mission and vision, share knowledge, research, and experience, and promote prosperity around the world. The Regional Directors (RD), Country Representatives (CR), and all our members play a crucial role in accomplishing these objectives. During the last term (2016-2021), under the excellent leadership of Dr. Beth Miller, essential improvements were achieved, such as the increased international visibility of IGA and the website (https://www.iga-goatworld.com) being more dynamic and continuously updated. Additionally, the new strategic plan (2018-2030) and the guidelines to help when planning International or Regional Conferences (Conference planning information) were approved. I want to thank the committee members involved in those tasks, chaired by Dr. Davinia Sánchez and Dr. Lucia Sepe, who did excellent work. 18 al 21 de mayo del 2022 en Valledupar, Cesar - Colombia 2° Encuentro de los representantes de la International Goat Asociation (IGA) en Latinoamerica I Foro género y mujeres en la ganadería de pequeños rumiantes Centro de convenciones Crispín Villazón de Armas, Comfacesar Fecha límite de recepción de trabajos 17 de enero 2022  A este evento se integrará:

Goats of the World and World of Goats – Emerging from the Shadow of COVID-19 The IGA virtual conference is almost here! If you are an IGA member, then registration is FREE. Registration is €25 for non-IGA members. Currently, an IGA membership is $55 (about €47). Save €25 (about $29) and join IGA today. The conference will take place on November 16, 2021 from 2 pm to 6 pm European Time (Paris time).
Goat breeding, as part of the livestock sector is a key contributor to food security, nutrition and livelihoods, especially for the world’s most vulnerable populations. Since the global outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020, the world’s goat production and the life of the farmers have been severely affected. The aim of the conference is to investigate the negative impacts (current and potential) of the pandemic e.g. reduced access to animal feeds, inputs and services; reduced processing capacities; compromised storage and conservation options; difficulties in inland and international transportation; animal health problems because of reduced testing and diagnostic capacity; lack of animal disease control programmes. Reports will be delivered on national and regional levels (by Country Representatives and Regional Directors of IGA), hoping to get a global overview by the end of the conference. The organisers would be more than happy to see some actions, how to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the goat sector.
