Dear IGCS Members,
We invite you to participate in the inaugural ESGO Survey on Environmental Sustainability. The World Health Organization defines environmental sustainability in healthcare as ‘a strategy to improve, maintain or restore health, while minimizing negative impacts on the environment and leveraging opportunities to restore and improve it, to the benefit of the health and well-being of current and future generations. This survey aims to investigate your attitudes, expectations, awareness and commitment regarding environmental sustainability in your clinical work as well as to capture how members advice ESGO and IGCS to support environmental sustainability in their activities.
Your insights are invaluable in shaping future initiatives and policies to promote sustainable practices in gynaecologic oncology. The results of the survey are planned to be published and discussed further during the next ESGO congress.
Your participation in this survey is voluntary. If you choose to participate, your responses will be kept confidential. The information collected during this survey will be used for research and organisational purposes. Only the research team and authorised personnel will have access to the data. Data will be stored securely and will be retained until the publication of the anonymised data analysis in a peer-reviewed journal. By proceeding with the survey, you indicate that you have read the information provided, understood the purpose and procedures, and voluntarily agree to participate. You may print a copy of this page for your records.
If you have any questions or concerns about the survey, please contact the ESGO Office at adminoffice@esgo.org.
We thank you for your participation in this initiative.
Sincerely,
ESGO Environment and Sustainability Working Group
In cooperation with IGCS
