Activities and Projects

The Excellence in Pediatrics Institute (EIPI) is a not-for-profit association that provides continuing medical education to a global network of over 45,000 child healthcare professionals. EIPI's purpose is to act as a hub for sharing the latest developments and advice with all stakeholders caring for children and adolescents. By leveraging the collective expertise and research of leading global pediatric healthcare professionals, EIPI aims to facilitate an open exchange of scientific knowledge and clinical best practices. EIPI strives to build a global community of child healthcare professionals that nurtures and supports their continuing education requirements and ever-changing needs.

THE ANNUAL EXCELLENCE IN PEDIATRICS CONFERENCE

Improving Child Health Globally 

The Excellence in Pediatrics Conference (EIP) is the Institute's annual flagship event that updates its delegates on the latest scientific developments. More importantly, it helps them improve the standard of care they deliver on the Monday morning after the meeting. The EIP Faculty presents cutting-edge research and its specific use for pediatric practice - providing attendees with unparalleled access to frontline research, but critically with a professional translation into clinical practice. The Excellence in Pediatrics Conference is a truly collaborative event designed for the benefit of frontline child healthcare professionals from across Europe and around the world. The scientific program can be viewed as a series of parallel speciality conferences that cover the latest hot topics and developments across specialities of pediatrics. In addition to the speciality-specific section, an interdisciplinary track covers overarching topics. This way, delegates can learn about signs and treatment per area, not just per discipline.

ANNUAL LIFECOURCE IMMUNIZATION POLICY SUMMIT & WORKING GROUPS

LifeCourse Vaccinations as the Basis of Health Systems Resilience

The Summit and Working Groups prioritise establishing life course vaccinations as the basis of health system resilience. By bringing together over 50 key organisations, opinion leaders, associations, and policymakers, EIP is working on what needs to change and what activities need to happen to support this desired change. The Summit and Working Group Meetings are central to EIP's work as part of the EU Vaccines Coalition. We are proud to collaborate with many allied organisations and associations.

SPOT THE EARLY SIGNS EDUCATION PROGRAM

Early Diagnosis Can Make a Difference

The program aims to fight under-diagnosed or late-diagnosed conditions for which treatments are available and where early detection and early treatment could make a significant difference in the condition's development, the quality of life and the survival of patients. Following a Peer-to-Peer educational approach, the program aims to improve everyday practice and how child healthcare professionals advise and treat the children and families they support. Pediatricians and family doctors will likely be the first healthcare professionals to observe symptoms. It is important to help these front-line clinicians suspect, diagnose, and refer patients as early as possible.
