The PowerPoint presentations and video replay from the 57th International Conference of Horseracing Authorities, organized by the International Federation of Horseracing Authorities, held earlier this month at Saint-Cloud Racecourse in France, can now be found at the IFHA website. Additionally, the replay of the International Conference for the Health, Safety and Welfare of Jockeys (ICHSWJ) is also available on the IFHA website.
The Conference was chaired by Winfried Engelbrecht-Bresges and focused on safeguarding equine welfare and exploring shifts in societal expectations, as well as the racing industry's response around the world. It examined both immediate concerns and forward-looking initiatives to protect and promote equine welfare.
The ICHSWJ was held on Sept. 28 at Auteuil Racecourse in Paris and featured presentations and panels on overall jockey well-being, including concussions, spinal injuries, and mental health and psychological fitness.
