14 WORLD GASTROENTEROLOGY NEWS JANUARY 2016 Gastro 2015: AGW-WGO | Expert Point of View | Gastro 2016: EGHS-WGO | WDHD News | WGO & WGOF News | WGO Global Guidelines | Calendar of Events most prosperous and rapidly develop-ing cities. In little over half a century it has seen a dramatic transformation from a small Bedouin settlement to a thriving business and tourism center of global stature. The island city of Abu Dhabi is a lush, modern metropolis, complete with tree-lined streets, futuristic skyscrapers, huge shopping malls and international luxury hotels. The city is surrounded by the sparkling waters of the Arabian Gulf, which offer a striking contrast to the large parks, and green boule-vards spread across the island. Abu Dhabi has entered a new era of dramatic development that will, over the next ten years, lead the Emirate to become one of the world’s major centers of excellence in tour-ism, culture, infrastructure develop-ment, business, and social activity. The physical transformation will be truly spectacular. A series of mas-sive investment projects promise to establish Abu Dhabi as one of the ar-chitectural wonders of the world. The hallmarks of these developments will be innovation, harmony, quality and style. Most of these developments will exist outside the city center, thus ensuring that construction for the future does not spoil enjoyment of the present. In partnership with the EGHS, and also a first in the UAE, WGO will be holding a WGO Train the Trainers Workshop (TTT) in Ras al- Khaimah from 21-24 November. An announcement to apply for TTT will go out to all WGO Member Societies shortly. For more information please visit www.gastro2016.com
