Welcome Note

Dear colleagues,

Welcome to the new website of European Paediatric Association (EPA/UNEPSA).

EPA is a pan-European scientific association for clinically practicing general paediatricians. Founded 35 years ago, it now represents 40 National Paediatric Societies while it has recently opened its doors to individual members. We operate on a non-profit basis and promote child health and comprehensive paediatric care.

A fundamental part of our role as a pan European association of 40 member societies is to understand and embrace diversity and foster the exchange of experiences and cooperation. General paediatricians from all over Europe can benefit tremendously from learning from each other and from specialists. To this end, the new highly interactive version of EPA website will provide a platform for paediatric e-learning focusing on the concept of “working and learning together”. The new website includes utilities for individual members and national societies and up-to-date contents such as news surrounding latest developments through interactive learning opportunities, information on available research grants and discussion threads for visitors.

With the new EPA website, our aim is to encourage cooperation amongst paediatricians in Europe and create a learning hub for the paediatric community, enabling members to exchange experiences and share best practices.

We hope you find navigation more user friendly through the new version of the EPA website!
