Have Your Say: Feedback Welcomed on Equine Welfare Strategy

We would like to thank everyone, who attended the FEI Sports Forum 2024 in-person or followed online. We have appreciated the level of engagement and the interesting discussions.

As announced by FEI Secretary General Sabrina Ibáñez, we have taken on board the feedback made during the Session on the final report of the Equine Ethics and Wellbeing Commission and the proposed action plan. We are also seeking further feedback.

Please send your ideas and suggestions by email to welfare@fei.org by May 15, 2024.

The feedback will be taken into consideration and will be discussed during the upcoming in-person FEI Board meeting on June 4-5. A thorough strategy will then be continued being developed and will be presented at a dedicated session during the FEI General Assembly 2024 in November in Oman.

A summary of the Sports Forum Sessions is available here along with the presentation made during the Session in pdf format and the Final Report of the Equine Ethics & Wellbeing Commission. We encourage you to consult these documents and look forward to your feedback by May 15.

Thank you for your cooperation.
