World Vegetarian Congress 2010

WORLD VEGETARIAN CONGRESS 2010

Flashing back on the World Vegetarian Congress, the first one was conducted over a hundred years ago. It was the moment the International Vegetarian Union came into existence in 1908. The latest one, the 38th World Vegetarian Congress was held in Dresden, Germany, in 2008, under the theme "100 Years of Food Revolution". It is honoured as a homecoming celebration after 100 years of promoting vegetarianism worldwide.

The upcoming 39th World Vegetarian Congress sets sail under the call for saving the global environment and life by going vegetarian: "Save our Life, Save our Planet". This time, the Congress is going to be hosted and organised by Indonesia in October 2010.

Home to the world's fourth largest human population, Indonesia definitely plays an important role in addressing global issues with respect to its human resources. A nationwide body representing the country in vegetarianism, the Indonesia Vegetarian Society wants to do its part for the country, ensuring that the huge potential the country has be transformed into a huge positive power that can in turn help the international community bring true health, true peace and true harmony into the world. That is why, the Indonesia Vegetarian Society has also ventured to host the 2009 Asian Vegetarian Congress. Evidently, this is part of the global imperative from the international vegetarian community.

The 39th World Vegetarian Congress is yet another important page in the world's vegetarian diary written for life and Planet Earth. It is a global consolidation for everyone committed to lending his or her healing hand for life and the environment. Anywhere, anytime! Come and give your support!
