Posted Monday March 21, 2022

The WGO has issued a statement of support to Ukrainian colleagues, the Ukrainian Gastroenterological Association, members, and friends, in addition to those working as first responders on the ground in Ukraine and surrounding countries like Poland and Romania.

The New Zealand Society of Gastroenterology stands united with WGO in their statement of Solidarity and Support for Ukraine.

He hono tangata e kore e motu; kāpā he taura waka e motu.
Unlike the canoe rope, bonds between people can never be severed.

We stand firmly against violence, and hope for an immediate, peaceful, and just resolution. To help alleviate the humanitarian crisis unfolding, please consider WGO’s recommendation to donate to the Red Cross .
