Please contact the Secretary for more information.

A full budget of all anticipated income and expenditure should be included together with details of source.
Please contact the Secretary for more information.

Details should be provided of any official involvement, financial or otherwise, from allied organisations or government bodies.

Some information regarding the availability of facilities for a social programme (including the half-day break from the scientific programme) should be included. The nature of this will depend upon the area in which the meeting is to be held. The proposals will be considered and a decision announced by the ISER International Committee during the current ISER i.e. 4 years in advance of the proposed ISER location. Selection will be based upon the quality, feasibility and reliability of the proposal and an assessment of the importance of the proposed host country to equine research.
