Country Articles & Presentations

Sharing Knowledge Across Borders

Country articles and presentations are an important part of the Curly World Seminar tradition. They allow each participating country to share developments, experiences and perspectives – and they form a valuable contribution to the international exchange of knowledge within the Curly community.

We warmly encourage every country to contribute.

Country Articles

Confirmed countries:


Country articles will be published in the official seminar book and cover the years:
2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025

There is no fixed outline. Each country is free to decide how to structure and present its contribution.

The article may focus on developments, activities, breeding progress, collaboration, challenges, achievements or other topics you find relevant for the period. The format and emphasis are entirely up to the author.

If you would like inspiration or prefer working from a suggested structure, you may download our optional guide here:

Country Presentations

Confirmed countries:


Country presentations will take place on the first day of the seminar.

Presentations are optional but highly encouraged, as they provide an opportunity to share insights directly with the international Curly community.

The content of the presentation should differ from the country article. You may choose to focus on:
▪ A specific theme
▪ A current challenge
▪ A breeding development
▪ An inspirational initiative
▪ Or another topic relevant to your country

Presentations are typically prepared as PowerPoint files.

Once we know how many countries wish to present, we will inform you about:
▪ Time allocation
▪ File submission deadline (expected during the summer)

If you would like to give a presentation, please contact us as soon as possible.

Why It Matters

Country contributions help create a broader understanding of how the Curly Coated Retriever is developing internationally. They provide inspiration, highlight shared challenges and strengthen cooperation across borders.

Your input – whether written, presented or both – plays an important role in supporting the future of our breed.
