The European Commission is funding an exchange programme to stimulate knowledge sharing and collaboration between healthcare professionals in the ERNs. Over two years, three different rounds of exchanges will take place, with the first round of visits beginning in March 2021 (COVID allowing). ERN eUROGEN will include Affiliated Partners in their plan as well as full members and will facilitate visits by expert surgeons to carry out procedures, visits by younger doctors for clinical/surgical training, and visits by other multidisciplinary team members.
The objective of the ERN Exchange Programme is to palliate disparities in specific knowledge or gaps in expertise by facilitating the arrival of high-level expertise in a considerable number of diseases to a large number of Healthcare Providers. Ecorys Ltd will provide services to all ERNs according to the framework of the Exchange Programme of the European Commission.
