Abstract

National and international medical congresses are an integral part of continuous professional development for health scientists and clinicians. Two publications, however, have recently raised considerable concern about their value or whether they are merely “a profitmaking enterprise.” Medical congresses are becoming larger, more luxurious, and expensive, and, as a result, their cost-benefit ratio may be decreasing. This review discusses the future of international pediatric congresses and how they can contribute to the education of pediatricians. Authors, representing the European Paediatric Association leadership, outline how the challenges may be tackled by using innovative strategies for future pediatric congresses.
