Given the current situation related to the worldwide spread COVID-19,
the Organising committee of the 12th World Rabbit Congress in accordance with
the WRSA board,
have decided to postpone the Conference, which was originally planned from
July 1st to 3rd in Nantes.
We sincerely apologize for all the inconveniences caused and we thank you
for your understanding.
We will inform you as soon as possible of the new date for our congress (at
least, after summer 2020).
More than 240 short papers
have been submitted, and most of them have already been accepted for presentation
in our congress.
The refereeing work is still in progress. Therefore,
all papers will be published (with
a delay) in the proceedings of our congress for all registered authors.
We are ready
to answer any questions you might have about the postponing.(see official
website)
Sincerely, the Organising committee of the 12th Rabbit Congress.
