We look forward to welcoming you (in person) at the next EAP Winter Meeting

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is my pleasure to invite you to the EAP Winter Meeting 2022 which is scheduled to take place from 2-3 December. After several virtual and hybrid meetings over the course of the past years, we look forward to finally seeing in-person (only) in the beautiful city of Brussels.

The virtual engagement lately has been valuable, but nothing will ever replace physical, face-to-face discussions and connection. Join us in December 2022 for discussions on key issues among professionals working to care for and cure the children living in Europe. The Winter Meeting is an essential activity to reassess where we are, share developments and consider the way forward. Your presence will help the EAP break new ground in Europe and beyond.

I strongly believe that we can be more effective in achieving our goals if we stand together and support each other. There is no better platform than the EAP Winter Meeting to discover new knowledge, make connections and promote research to ensure their continuing professional development. 


The European Academy of Paediatrics (EAP) continues to promote child health and to harmonize standards of paediatric training and services throughout Europe. We urge you to participate and to help us form a strong and unified team, working for the advancement of our children’s health.

See you in Brussels!

Sincerely,

Adamos Hadjipanayis

EAP President
