IDF World Dairy Summit

De IDF World Dairy Summit is jaarlijks de belangrijkste zuivelconferentie wereldwijd. Onder het motto 'Dare to dairy' vond dit toonaangevende event in 2016 in Rotterdam plaats, onder organisatie van het Nederlands Nationaal Comité.

De IDF-conferentie van 2016 is vooral bekend geworden vanwege de 'Dairy Declaration of Rotterdam', een gezamenlijk statement van IDF en FAO over het belang van de zuivelsector voor de VN-duurzaamheidsdoelstellingen. In 2017 werd ook door Nederland de Dairy Declaration onderschreven.
