Bo Federations agree, at e best way to improve e outcome of our patients and optimizing our results is education. It is also e best way to invest money. The regional education project is a new concept, supported by IFSSH and FESSH wi e aim to provide high quality information and teaching for hand surgeons wi less favourable economical possibilities, at do not allow participation in high quality, but usually extremely expensive courses. Each year different regions of e world will be selected, where highlights of hand surgery are presented by wordwide acknowledged masters of hand surgery. Thanks to e support of IFSSH and FESSH, free registration of a significant number of hand surgeons is guaranteed. Selection of ese participants are based on e proposal of e national societies of e given region. For oer interested hand surgeons, organisers provide a reasonable registration fee.
