Welcome Letter
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf of the Conference Organizing Committee, it is our pleasure to invite you to attend the 12th International Conference on Goats “ICG 2016”, which
will take place between September 25-30, 2016 in the great city of Antalya, Turkey. We are delighted to welcome all delegates to this event.
Professionals involved in all aspects of goat production, processing and value chains from all over the world will have the opportunity to gain new
knowledge, share experiences and explore the exciting city of Antalya and its surroundings.
The theme for the conference is “Contributions of caprine agrosylvopastoral production systems to society and the environment: different strategies for
developing goat value chains to face global change”, including a range of production systems with a focus on research and evidence for practice, and the
contribution to delivery of quality goat products. Our keynote and invited speakers come from around the world, representing the very best in their fields
of expertise. Additionally we will have presentations, both oral and poster, from colleagues in practice, education, management and research. Poster sessions
are organized to provide a forum for continued and extensive coverage of the topics addressed in the conference and provide the opportunity for young
scientists to present their work.
Learning from the past and planning for the future, the 12th ICG will provide us with an excellent opportunity to share our experiences and projects. In
addition to the outstanding scientific program being offered, we encourage delegates to enjoy the famous cultural heritage and natural beauty of Turkey
with our social and cultural events. You are also invited to visit the trade conference exhibition where you will find the latest in goat-related technologies
and new systems.
We welcome all delegates to what promises to be a highlight of the 2016 calendar.
Yours Sincerely,
Dr. İrfan Daşkıran
Dr. Nazan Koluman
