European Children’s Hospitals Organisation

Together with ECHO, we are shaping the future of paediatric healthcare, one patient at a time.

European children's hospitals have a unique role in the healthcare system, with responsibility for providing care, research, and education, and they often face the same challenges. ECHO enables knowledge exchange and it is a mutual platform to facilitate the sharing of insights and expertise among members. ECHO can also provide expert advice for decision-makers, industry, and other stakeholders.

“We're proud to be an active participant in the European Children's Hospitals Organisation (ECHO), a network dedicated to advancing paediatric healthcare across Europe.

Our commitment to excellence in children's health aligns seamlessly with ECHO's mission, making us a valued member of this esteemed organisation," says Merete Lange
