The World Rabbit Science Association (WRSA)
Is structured through national or regional Branches, which form the foundation of the Association.
A Branch is established by a minimum of ten WRSA members within a country. Where fewer than ten members are present in a single nation, countries may combine to create a regional Branch.
Role of the Branches:
- Represent their members within the WRSA Council
- Promote rabbit science and production at national or regional level
- Organize scientific and technical meetings
- May publish journals or technical documents
- Support communication and collaboration among professionals
Each Branch operates in accordance with the WRSA Constitution and By-Laws while maintaining autonomy in its local activities.
