Since 1897, Apimondia has been holding scientific congresses of beekeepers every two years, which are hosted by a country, and this year, Apimondia 2022 was held in Istanbul with many challenges. Apimondia Istanbul 2022 is the first event after covid-19. The last Apimondia Congress was held in 2019 in Montreal, Canada, and after this event, it was not held due to the world’s conflict with the Covid-19 pandemic. The main reason for holding the Apimondia 2022 Congress in Istanbul was the cancellation of the Congress due to the war between Ukraine and Russia, because this event was supposed to be held in Russia, but the war between Russia and Ukraine prevented it from being held.
