Welcome

Welcome to Horse Connexion.org.

Horse Connexion aims to improve horse welfare and equitation through knowledge transfer to riders, riding teachers and horse owners.

We present the results of published equine research and provide information about ongoing projects from all over the world. We also inform about seminars and other interesting activities taking place in Europe.

Horse Connexion aims to create a connection between science and practice as well as a connection between horse people from different countries.

Our mission is to increase welfare of horses and humans and quality of riding by translating scientific knowledge into easily accessible information for riders, horse owners, riding instructors and others that can be applied to improve the management and training of horses.

Interested persons or organisation can sign in to be alerted by e-mail every time there is a new item published on Horse Connexion.
