Gathering Call for European Beekeeping Association Launch in Belgrade, Set for February 10, 2024.
The Founding Assembly of the European Beekeeping Association is scheduled to take place on February 10, 2024, in Belgrade, Serbia. The assembly, which will be held during the grand jubilee XV State Beekeeping Fair with international participation, is currently in the application process for representatives of European beekeeping associations.
The initiative committee, supported by financial aid from the German GIZ, has chosen Serbia as the host for the assembly, aiming to establish a neutral ground outside the EU for this significant event. The assembly will take place in the ceremonial hall of the administrative building of the Belgrade Fair, starting at 3 p.m.
On February 9, 2024, representatives will arrive in Belgrade in the afternoon. Upon arrival, they will enter the hotel and embark on a self-organised tour of Belgrade, followed by dinner at the hotel. The following day, February 10, will begin with a free visit to the XV State Beekeeping Fair from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. The Founding Assembly of the European Beekeeping Association will commence at 3 p.m. and is expected to conclude by 5 p.m.
The details about accommodation for other beekeeping associations joining the assembly are yet to be announced. However, representatives who have successfully submitted their application forms are eligible for two free overnight stays on a full board basis.
The three main goals of establishing the European Beekeeping Association are: fighting counterfeit honey, introducing special subsidies per beehive, and fighting the improper use of pesticides toxic to bees.
At this time, the exact agenda for the Founding Assembly of the European Beekeeping Association on February 10, 2024, remains undisclosed.

- During the assembly, discussion on issues such as the proper use of home-and-garden products in beekeeping, travel-related challenges faced by beekeepers, and the role of education-and-self-development in sustaining European beekeeping industries is expected.
- On the sidelines of the assembly, local news outlets and political commentators may discuss the potential impact of the association on EU-wide policies and international trade agreements related to beekeeping.
- After concluding the assembly, attendees may enjoy post-event leisure activities ranging from sightseeing tours to trips exploring general-news interests around Belgrade, such as local museums, historical sites, or cultural events.
