What we do

We are the Pan-Arabian Research Society for Gynecologic Oncology (PARSGO), established in 2016 and headquartered in Berlin. As a Non-Governmental and
Nonprofit Organization, we are proud to be part of the Global Health Initiative of Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin. Our mission is to empower women impacted by gynecologic cancers across the MENA and Sub-Saharan regions.

At PARSGO, we are committed to building a robust, collaborative network of healthcare professionals dedicated to advancing research, education, and advocacy
tailored to the unique challenges faced by these women. We collaborate with esteemed partners, including [insert names of collaborating partners here, e.g., local
and international healthcare organizations, universities, and NGOs], to enhance our impact and reach.

Our organization is organized into several specialized task forces that address critical areas of gynecologic oncology:

  1. Research Task Force: Focuses on advancing clinical and translational research in gynecologic cancers to improve patient outcomes and contribute
    to the global body of knowledge.
  2. Education Task Force: Develops training programs, workshops, and educational materials for healthcare professionals and patients, ensuring that
    the latest advancements and best practices in gynecologic oncology are disseminated widely.
  3. Tumor Board Task Force: Facilitates multidisciplinary discussions among specialists to optimize patient care, foster collaboration, and share expertise in
    complex cases.
  4. Patient Advocacy Task Force: Works tirelessly to represent the voices of patients, ensuring their needs and experiences inform policies and practices.
    This task force also provides resources and support for patients navigating their treatment journeys.
  5. Young Academy: Engages emerging healthcare professionals and researchers in gynecologic oncology, providing mentorship and opportunities
    for professional development to foster the next generation of leaders in the field.

Global health is of paramount importance, especially concerning women’s health. Addressing gynecologic cancers requires a comprehensive approach that
encompasses research, education, and advocacy to ensure that women receive the support and care they need. By focusing on these areas, PARSGO aims to reduce
disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, ultimately improving the lives of women affected by gynecologic cancers throughout our regions.
