The history section of this website is drawn from a body of legacy content originally compiled by John Davis, former manager of the International Vegetarian Union. It represents his curation of historical material, and in places includes passages written by him directly. Over the years, the IVU website has migrated between several different hosting servers. In the course of these migrations, a number of PDF files were unfortunately lost, and **some links to PDF documents may no longer function**. Where this is the case, we have chosen to leave the original link text in place, as it may itself carry information of historical value. - Hits: 1620 ## Schema ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4320:members-council-hiren-kara&catid=208","url":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4320:members-council-hiren-kara&catid=208","name":"Hiren Kara — IVU International Council","description":"IVU Secretary (1999-2000) and Assistant General Secretary (1996-1999).","inLanguage":"en","isPartOf":[{"@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html#archive"},{"@id":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html#international-council"}],"about":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/hiren-kara"},"mainEntity":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/hiren-kara"},"publisher":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#organization"}},{"@type":"Person","@id":"https://ivu.org/#/schema/person/hiren-kara","name":"Hiren Kara","description":"IVU Secretary (1999-2000) and Assistant General Secretary (1996-1999).","url":"https://ivu.org/history-of-ivu.html?view=article&id=4320:members-council-hiren-kara&catid=208","memberOf":[{"@type":"OrganizationRole","roleName":"Member of the IVU International Council","memberOf":{"@id":"https://ivu.org/#organization"},"startDate":"1996","endDate":"2000","description":"Represented: India"}]}]} ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://ivu.org" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "IVU", "item": "https://ivu.org/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Resources", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "Interviews", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 5, "name": "History of the Vegetarian Societies", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 6, "name": "members", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 7, "name": "council", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews.html" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 8, "name": "Hiren Kara", "item": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews/4320-members-council-hiren-kara.html" } ] } ``` ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Article", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://ivu.org/international-vegetarian-union/resources/interviews/4320-members-council-hiren-kara.html" }, "headline": "Hiren Kara", "description": "Hiren Kara: IVU Secretary (1999-2000) IVU Assistant General Secretary (1996-99) Hiren at the World Vegetarian Congress in Goa 2006 Asia Pacific Regional Conference on Reverence for all Life, 1999 A Report on the World Convention on Reverence for All Life, India, November 1997 (IVU News 3-98)", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "International Vegetarian Union", "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://ivu.org/images/logos/logo-ivu-tranparent-background.png" } }, "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Alex Fernandes", "url": "https://ivu.org/international-council.html" }, "datePublished": "2026-06-30T23:45:26+00:00", "dateCreated": "2026-06-25T00:17:23+00:00", "dateModified": "2026-10-08T00:54:39+00:00" } ```
