Dear Colleagues and Friends;
Welcome to the World Association of Perinatal Medicine.
WAPM is doing its best to serve the society at the level of scientific research, publication, recommendations, guidelines, and postgraduate training as courses, webinars, and congresses and tries to establish the standards in the field of perinatal medicine, such as mainly obstetrics, neonatology and perinatal genetics.
For over three decades, WAPM has been at the forefront of advancing perinatal science and improving clinical practice. Our Association unites obstetricians, neonatologists, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, midwives, nurses, and researchers from every corner of the world, all dedicated to a common goal: enhancing the care and outcomes for mothers and their babies. We have a proud legacy of scientific excellence and collaboration — promoting cutting-edge research, publishing guidelines and recommendations, and providing high-quality training that has elevated perinatal care across continents.
Today, this legacy continues through a host of ongoing initiatives. WAPM remains deeply committed to education and international cooperation. Through our educational programs — including webinars, specialized courses, and our flagship World School of Perinatal Medicine (WSPM) — we disseminate the latest knowledge and skills to healthcare providers worldwide. We actively foster partnerships with national perinatal societies and global health organizations, creating opportunities to share expertise and work together on improving perinatal outcomes. Our World Congresses and workshops provide invaluable forums for learning, discussion, and the exchange of ideas, further strengthening the bonds within our worldwide community.
As we look to the future, we envision WAPM growing even stronger as both a leading scientific authority and a unifying force in perinatal medicine. We will embrace innovation in research and technology, develop new standards of care, and expand our outreach so that no region is left behind. Most importantly, we will continue to bring people together — building an inclusive global network of experts and stakeholders who support each other and advance our shared mission of healthy mothers and healthy newborns everywhere.
In closing, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for your dedication and invite your active engagement in the journey ahead. The progress we have achieved in perinatal medicine is a testament to the passion and expertise of professionals like you. I encourage every member and partner of WAPM to participate in our programs, contribute knowledge, and collaborate through our platforms. Together, let us continue to push the boundaries of science, educate the next generation of caregivers, and improve the lives of families in every part of the world.
Sincerely,
World Association of Perinatal Medicine
