There are 2 very different lead articles in this issue. Dr. Maria Claudia Stefanoli of Montevideo, Uruguay provides a suc-cinct
and relevant overview of some of the very important quality indicators in endoscopy, stressing how important these
are for the best care for our patients. Anyone who is interested in endoscopy will find this article very useful.
The other is a history of the WGO by Dr. Eamonn Quigley, WGO Foundation Chairman, which gives the fascinating
story of the evolution of this amazing organization from the early OMGE to the current WGO and new WGO Founda-tion
that truly focuses on global needs for gastroenterology.
We are sure you will find both articles of great interest!
Moreover, in this issue, we have articles about the 2 new Training Centers in Addis Ababa and Lagos and updates from
successful meetings around the world including Chile, Montenegro, Portugal and Turkey, (several associated with World
Digestive Health Day which highlighted GERD this year) as well as a new colonoscopy upskilling course in South Africa.
As always, we hope you enjoy this issue, and feedback is always welcome.
