The International Young Breeders Organisation was formalised in 2009 with the introduction of a committee structure. President Inken Grafin von Platen-Hallermund and Patron Jan Pedersen encourage and invite all WBFSH member studbooks with an interest in young breeders to get involved. WBFSH World Championships for International Young Breeders are hosted by a different studbook every second year with the objective of competition, fun, making new contacts and education.
