ABIDJAN, Côte d’Ivoire — The International Cocoa Organization (ICCO) is hereby calling for bids to host the 2nd edition of the International Symposium on Cocoa Research (ISCR), to take place in the second semester of 2020.
The 1st edition of ISCR was held in Lima, Peru in November 2017 (https://www.icco.org/iscr2017).
In order to ensure equal representation as hosts of the ISCR by cocoa producing and consuming countries, and considering that the first edition of the event was hosted by a cocoa producing / exporting country, the Secretariat is inviting bids for the 2020 edition from cocoa consuming / importing countries.
The deadline for submission of official bids to host this event is Thursday 28 February 2019.
