FAIS is honoured to host the 16th EOA Congress in the beautiful venue of Garda Lake
Jon Thorkelsson
President of EOA
Welcome to Italy!
FAIS is honoured to host the 16th EOA Congress in the beautiful venue of Garda Lake. It will be four days for sharing important experiences among people who live the same mission.
Through the work of our associations we have the opportunity to change the lives of the people we represent for the better. The conference sessions will help us in this. We also have significant challenges ahead of us: reducing the differences between countries in the treatment and care of ostomized people, increasing the representativeness of associations in Europe, finding new solutions to improve people's lives, for example.
Together it will be easier to do it.
Pier Raffaele Spena
FAIS President
