ENTOG History

How it all began.

The first Annual Meeting and Exchange of the European Network of Trainees in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (ENTOG) took place in The Netherlands in 1992.

​

The idea of ENTOG was conceived in 1996 during the VI European Meeting on Training in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Barcelona, Spain, reflecting a growing need for structured collaboration among trainees across Europe.

​

ENTOG was officially established in 1997 at the first ENTOG Council meeting in Athens, Greece, where the inaugural Executive Committee was elected.

​

A second Executive Committee was elected in 1999 in Rome, Italy, with a key focus on developing the organisation’s statutes. These statutes were approved by the Council in Basel in 2000 and formally ratified in Malmö in 2001.

​

Since then, ENTOG has continued to grow, with an increasing number of member countries joining the network and contributing to its mission of enhancing training and collaboration in Obstetrics and Gynaecology across Europe.
