14th Congress of European Association of Agricultural Economists. Nearly 700 participants from 49 countries attended the EAAE congress that was in previous years hosted by some of the biggest European cities. <\/strong>Having the size and complexity of the EAAE congress in mind, Slovenian Association of Agricultural Economists in cooperation with GR-Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre and GO.MICE \u2013 professional congress organizer prepared a winning bid that in the beginning of 2011 persuaded the European Association of Agricultural Economists.\u00a0 After Zurich in 2011, Ljubljana proudly became the host city for the EAAE Congress in 2014. Dr. Ale\u0161 Kuhar, University of Ljubljana &#8211; Biotechnical Faculty and the organizer: <em>\u201cAfter more than two years of preparations which in the last six months required an intensive co-operation with the professional organizer, congress venues and PCOs, I can say that the team has done a great job. The feedback we got from the participants was extremely positive.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The congress under the main theme \u201cAgri-Food and Rural Innovations for Healthier Societies\u201d took stock of the insights of scholars into all areas of agricultural, food, resource and rural economics. The Programme Committe and the Local Organising Committee organized an inspiring congress program consisting of pre-congress symposia, plenary sessions, contributed paper sessions, poster sessions, organized sessions, high level events and evening courses for young scholars.<\/p>\n<p>Professional organizers were pleased with the quality and the number of scientific articles presented over the four days of the congress. A varied and carefully thought-out social program was prepared for the participants. The highlight was the \u201cDown-town get-together\u201d held at Poga\u010dar Square and farewell dinner called \u201cWalk through the Slovenian culinary and wine regions\u201d. The catering was entrusted to master chefs of Kaval Group. \u0160pela Terpin from GR explained: <em>\u201cWe were pleased to host the congress with more than 600 participants coming from Europe and other parts of the world. Since participants are agricultural policy makers, special emphasis was placed on the presentation of local agriculture. The local cuisine served on the platform of the GR &#8211; Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre was accompanied by a performance of indigenous Lipizzan horses.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>12 exciting study tours around Slovenia related to the congress topics were offered. For most of the participants this was a unique chance to explore different parts of Slovenia, meet Slovenian producers of wine, beer, cheese, meat and experience countryside and hospitality of local people.<\/p>\n<p>Participation has exceeded all expectations when nearly 700 participants from all around the world attended the congress. Majority came from Italy, Germany and France, while participants from Brazil, Australia and Africa also attended the congress. Although the organization was a challenge, at the end all ran smoothly. Natalija Bah \u010cad, project manager at GO.MICE \u2013 professional congress organizer: <em>\u201cWhen we started to plan the congress we made a \u201cpessimistic\u201d projection for 450 to 600 participants. So, we are glad to exceed the numbers. Rooms were reserved in most of Ljubljana\u2019s hotels well in advance. Although it is a high congress season in Ljubljana and hotels are fully booked, we have managed to make the last minutes bookings.\u00a0 We are happy all went as planned but most of all that we got very positive impressions about the city and the congress venue from participants.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>More at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eaae2014.si\/eaae\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.eaae2014.si\/eaae\/<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"tdi_10\" class=\"tdc-row\"><div class=\"vc_row tdi_11  wpb_row td-pb-row\" >\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_11,\r\n                .tdi_11 .tdc-columns{\r\n                    min-height: 0;\r\n                }.tdi_11,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_11 .tdc-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_11 .tdc-columns{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_11:before,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_11:after{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: table;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"vc_column tdi_13  wpb_column vc_column_container tdc-column td-pb-span8\">\n<style scoped>\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n\n\/* custom css - generated by TagDiv Composer *\/\n.tdi_13{\r\n                    vertical-align: baseline;\r\n                }.tdi_13 > .wpb_wrapper,\r\n\t\t\t\t.tdi_13 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    display: block;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_13 > .wpb_wrapper > .tdc-elements{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: 100%;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_13 > .wpb_wrapper > .vc_row_inner{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}.tdi_13 > .wpb_wrapper{\r\n\t\t\t\t    width: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t    height: auto;\r\n\t\t\t\t}\n<\/style><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\" ><div class=\"wpb_wrapper wpb_text_column td_block_wrap td_block_wrap vc_column_text tdi_14  tagdiv-type td-pb-border-top td_block_template_5\"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_14\" ><div class=\"td-fix-index\"><h4>The 40th World Scout Conference took place in Ljubljana!<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_wrapper wpb_text_column td_block_wrap td_block_wrap vc_column_text tdi_15  tagdiv-type td-pb-border-top td_block_template_5\"  data-td-block-uid=\"tdi_15\" ><div class=\"td-fix-index\"><div class=\"C3710CmsNewsDateDiv CmsNewsDateDiv remarks\"><span class=\"cmsNewsDateDate\">27.08.2014<\/span> <span class=\"cmsNewsDateTime\">15:42<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"C3710CmsNewsTextDiv CmsNewsTextDiv\"><strong>The World Organisation of the Scout Movement &#8211; WOSM has in early 2011 selected Ljubljana as the host destination for its 40th jubilee World Scout Conference.\u00a0 Over 1200 delegates from 130 countries attended the event from 11 to 15 August 2014, which makes it not only this year&#8217;s largest congress in terms of delegate numbers, but also the most international event ever held in the capital and Slovenia. The conference venue, GR &#8211; Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre, offered an excellent space flexibility to accommodate the main programme, whilst some parallel events staged in the city centre were also open for the public. <\/strong>The World Scout Conference (WSC) takes place every three years. Ljubljana became its proud host after Brazil, Korea, Tunisia and Greece through the efforts of the Slovenian member of the World Scout Movement \u2013 The Scout Association of Slovenia. In January 2011, the members of the association convinced the majority of the 162 member states that Ljubljana was the next most appropriate host for the conference, thus overcoming its difficult opponent for the year 2014 \u2013 Florence.<\/p>\n<p>Ljubljana Tourism and its Convention Bureau started the ongoing cooperation with the national scout association from the earliest stage of the bid preparation four years ago and also the City of Ljubljana lent its substantial support\u00a0 in the event\u2019s organisation. Tatjana Radovi\u0107, Ljubljana Tourism\/Convention Bureau, explained: <em>\u201cWe cooperated in the bid strategy, liased with the local partners \/ suppliers to ensure Ljubljana would provide a competitive offer, supported the numerous promotions that the national scout association performed abroad throughout the year 2010, supported the bid presentation in Brazil in early 2011, site visits and kept in contact and reacted to the necessities of the local host committee whenever needed till the D-day. \u201c<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The opening ceremony of the conference received the patronage of the President of the Republic of Slovenia, Mr Borut Pahor, who addressed the delegates from around the world.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/scout.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">The World Organisation of the Scout Movement &#8211; WOSM<\/a> is the world&#8217;s largest educational youth movement, bringing together primarily young people. Nevertheless, the attendees of the conference are mostly middle aged and are successful and renowned individuals, entrepreneurs, businessmen, politicians and academics from all fields. Among the distinguished guests who were present at the conference a special mention goes to the United Nations Secretary-General\u2019s Envoy on Youth, Mr Alhendawi Ahmad.<\/p>\n<p>The goal of the conference was to examine the operational guidelines of the Scout Movement throughout the world, to establish a policy of the global organization by 2023 and to adopt the measures necessary for the purpose of strengthening the movement.<\/p>\n<p>The participants of the conference were also able to attend a varied programme of accompanying events, some of them open for the public. Thus, scouts\u2019 workshops for children, a presentation of scouts\u2019 activities and games followed by scouts\u2019 bands performances took place at the central Congress Square during the WSC in the afternoon and evening hours.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, an open air exhibition of scouts\u2019 photos &#8220;Youth in nature&#8221;, opened by the Mayor of Ljubljana, Mr Zoran Jankovi\u0107, was on view at the central promenade in Tivoli Park. All in all, Ljubljana really breathed in unison with the international scout community and proved to be a most hospitable destination. Tatjana concluded: <em>\u201cIn numbers, the WSC 2014 generated around 8,000 overnights mostly in 3- and 4-star hotels, which for Ljubljana is quite a high number from a single event. The media coverage was also very good, and this congress was definitely one that attracted the wider attention of the local residents and was really felt in the city. The local Host team with all the volunteers invested an enormous amount of energy and time into this project and made a terrific job.
