Apimondia is the International Federation of Beekeepers’ Associations |
Our main objective is to facilitate the exchange of information and discussions by organizing Congresses and Symposium where beekeepers, scientists, honey-traders, agents for development, technicians and legislators meet to listen, discuss and learn from one another.

And we love bees |
In 1893 the International Committee of Apicultural Congresses was set up and in 1897 organised the First International Apicultural Congress in Brussels in conjunction with the World Fair. The attendance was huge, with 636 participants. During this time the International Apicultural Exhibition was held in Tervueren with 339 exhibitors from 10 European countries.
Since then, Apimondia has been promoting knowledge transfer and organising beekeepers’ events and the biennial International Apicultural Congresses, which are the largest international gatherings of all involved in apiculture. |
