ESGO Centre Candidacy Programme
ESGO Centre Candidacy Programme
With the centre accreditation process, ESGO has aimed to improve the quality of care in managing patients with gynaecological cancers and set an objective to have at least one accredited centre in each European country.
However, small countries with low populations or lower resources without national centralisation have been unable to achieve this objective.
In 2022, ESGO initiated the Centre Candidacy Programme to assist these centres that may not initially meet the accreditation requirements but have the potential to improve and provide comparable quality of care.
ESGO supports these centres by collaborating with presidents of National Gynaecological Oncology societies and National ESGO Ambassadors, promoting the ESGO quality indicators at national conferences, fostering fellows to participate in ESGO training programmes, and more.
