1965
From the minutes of the Business Meeting at the World Vegetarian Congress,
England:
SCIENCE COUNCIL: A proposal was made and accepted that the Science Council
of the International Vegetarian Union should be formed to gather scientific
information from all available sources, be abstracted by a group of qualified
scientists and collated by Dr Ralph Bircher and Dr Franck Wokes, both
of whom would keep identical files and suggest suitable matter for publication.
Each congress would be given a resume of the most significant developments
effecting vegetarianism. It was agreed that the over-riding control should
be in the hands of the IVU Committee.
1967
1968
1969
Pre-Congress publicity for the 1969 World Vegetarian Congress specifically
mentioned SCIVU meetings scheduled during the Congress. Unfortunately
no we have no reports from that Congress
SCIVU appears to have continued actively during the 1970s but no further
reports are currently available.

1999
From the minutes of the Business Meeting at the WVC:
Professor Marcel Hebbelink's report was read by Mr Francisco Martin.
- this recommended that attempts to revive SCIVU should cease in favour
of using the internet for communications between vegetarian/vegan scientists.
The ivu-sci discussion list was started
later in 1999.
Further details will be added here as they become available.
