Jul 5, 2023

Padua Congress increasingly confirms itself as one of the reference venues for medical-scientific congresses: in the past few weeks it hosted the International Congress of the European Academy of Paediatrics (EAP) and the MasterCouse on the topic of ‘The acutely ill child’.

These two scientific appointments are the result of a close synergy between the EAP, the Italian Society of Paediatrics and the Department of Women’s and Children’s Health of Padua, three institutions that share their fundamental mission, that of promoting and protecting the physical and psychological health of newborns, children and adolescents, of every culture and ethnic group, defending their rights. A 360-degree activity, more fundamental than ever in these years in which rapid technological advances are transforming the entire society and the world of childhood and adolescence, and consequently paediatric care and assistance.

The event in Padua was attended by 761 paediatricians from 69 countries on all continents. The largest presence, like that of Italy, was that of specialists from the Philippines and Australia.

The authority of the speakers and moderators, the active contributions of many participants with oral and poster presentations and the great interaction in the hall made this event a real success.

Particularly significant was the active participation of many young people from all over the world, whose commitment and preparation are and will be crucial for the health of tomorrow’s girls and boys.

“it is the first time that the beautiful city of Padua has witnessed such an extraordinary gathering of minds at a paediatric congress,” emphasises the Professor Liviana Da Dalt, Director of the Padua Department of Women’s and Children’s Health and member of the EAP Executive Committee -This event served as a global platform for pediatric experts, healthcare professionals and enthusiasts to exchange knowledge, discuss cutting-edge research and promote collaboration. Both the Mastercourse and the Congress proved to be a summit of excellence. From the captivating scientific sessions to the numerous networking opportunities, the event left an indelible mark on the paediatric medicine landscape’

Finally, the organisers explain, ‘how the functionality, technology, digital solutions and innovative outlook of Padova Congress and its organising team have made it possible to welcome speakers, moderators and participants in a high-level hub, positioning our city as a new reference point in the ‘meetings industry’ at national and international level’.
