An Equestrian Federation is an organization that governs and promotes equestrian sports and activities within a specific country or region. These federations oversee competitions, set rules, and ensure the welfare of horses and riders. They often work to develop training programs and support grassroots initiatives to encourage participation in equestrian disciplines. In addition to organizing events, an Equestrian Federation may also represent its country in international competitions, such as the Olympic Games or the FEI World Equestrian Games. They collaborate with various stakeholders, including riders, trainers, and horse owners, to advance the sport and enhance its visibility.
