Short Minutes of the International Federation for Eurasierzucht
on 31/10-01/11/2020
Since 1996, each year at the end of October, the IFEZ clubs have met to exchange information about breeding and about any necessary measures to keep our beautiful breed the "Eurasier" healthy as well as sound in temperament.
In 2020, everything was different. That meeting was also affected by Corona. We quickly came to the decision to hold the meeting online, so that the exchange of information would not stall.
Three conference modules were created for the weekend. With some variation in the clubs’ participants, the content was competently discussed and worked through with the help of the online platform "MS Teams" by John Stegman, the current IFEZ Chair.
- Further collection of ideas on the redesign of the joint agreement on cooperation between the clubs
- Our database will be cloud-based, backups, GDPR, hits, etc. was discussed; first concrete information was provided
- The new homepage will now also be made available in English
- Many new insights about breeding and health of our Eurasiers gained (breeding requirements, thyroid problems, popular sire syndrome, inbreeding problems, etc.)
- Information about fees in member clubs, requirements of different kennel clubs etc.
Will we be able to meet in person again in 2021? Let us hope so!
