In an effort to keep the pace of the digitalisation process that is currently affecting all sectors of the economy, including the international public sector, the OIV intends to contract a consultant/partner to collaborate on the design and planification of a comprehensive and detailed strategy of digital transformation of the organisation.
Behind this project there is the awareness that the OIV needs a global view on IT projects to update and optimise its capacity and efficiency in terms of both internal/external communication with its stakeholders and data/information management.
Zur Anpassung an die derzeitige Ausnahmesituation führt die OIV Ausnahmeregelungen hinsichtlich der geographischen Vertretung der Jurymitglieder auf internationalen Wettbewerben ein.
Die OIV unterstützt die Aktivitäten des Weinbausektors, indem sie dazu auffordert, in dieser Übergangszeit Verkoster heranzuziehen, die die Staatsangehörigkeit des betreffenden Landes besitzen. In dem Bestreben, in diesen schwierigen Zeiten eine starke institutionelle Botschaft zu vermitteln, ermöglicht die OIV den Veranstaltern nicht nur, sondern hält sie auch dazu an, Verkoster mit der Staatsangehörigkeit des betreffenden Landes einzusetzen, die über nachgewiesene Erfahrung im Bereich internationaler Wettbewerbe verfügen. Diese Maßnahme erfolgt im Bewusstsein der Notwendigkeit, den Reiseverkehr zur Eindämmung der Ausbreitung des Virus einzuschränken.
Diese befristete Ausnahmeregelung gilt vom 6. Mai 2020 bis zum 31. Dezember 2021.

Über die Schirmherrschaft der OIV
Die Internationale Organisation für Rebe und Wein bedauert, Ihnen mitteilen zu müssen, dass der 43. Weltkongress für Rebe und Wein, der 2020 in Santiago (Chile) stattfinden sollte, aufgehoben/verschoben wird. Wir haben ebenfalls Informationen aus Usbekistan erhalten, das den Wunsch äußert, den für 2021 geplanten Kongress in Samarkand zu verschieben.
Der Weltkongress für Rebe und Wein ist ein Schlüsselmoment im Leben der OIV. In der Regel finden diese Kongresse jedes Jahr auf Einladung eines der 47 Mitgliedstaaten statt und bieten Wissenschaftlern unterschiedlicher Fachrichtungen einen Ort der Begegnung und des Meinungs- und Wissensaustauschs. Es werden die Ergebnisse der Arbeiten in den Bereichen Weinbau, Önologie, Wirtschaft und regulatorische Entwicklungen des Sektors sowie die Auswirkungen auf die Lebensmittelsicherheit und die Gesundheit vorgestellt.
Wissenschaftler aus aller Welt wurden aufgerufen, ihre Arbeiten 2020 in Chile vorzustellen und ihre Erfahrungen zum Thema „Anpassung an neue Szenarien: Produktions-, soziale und Marktherausforderungen“ auszutauschen.
Die OIV arbeitet an einer Möglichkeit, diese Kongresse in einem anderen Rahmen zu fördern, um die Annullierung der Sitzungen in den nächsten zwei Jahren zu kompensieren. Weitere Informationen werden zu gegebener Zeit mitgeteilt.
In der Zwischenzeit kann der Abstract-Band früherer Kongresse hier abgerufen werden.
Im Namen des Organisationsteams in Chile und des OIV-Sekretariats danken wir Ihnen für Ihre Aufmerksamkeit und hoffen, Sie auf dem nächsten Weltkongress für Rebe und Wein begrüßen zu dürfen.
Für weitere Fragen zu diesem Thema stehen wir Ihnen unter papers[at]oiv.int zur Verfügung.
Bleiben Sie gesund und schützen Sie sich! Die OIV wünscht Ihnen alles Gute.
