📢 Join WEO Before Our Membership Fee Changes!

WEO Individual Membership has always been USD 50 — and we’ve never changed it. But starting January 1, 2026, the fee will switch to EUR 50. Why? Simply because it’s easier for us to handle payments in euros, as our office is based in Europe. Nothing else is changing.

Becoming a WEO member gives you access to:

✅ A global network of endoscopists

✅ Exclusive educational programs (WISE, VCEN…)

✅ Regular updates on activities

✅ Reduced registration fees for endorsed courses

✅ Monthly e-newsletter and more

If you’ve been thinking about joining, now is the perfect time — lock in the current USD 50 rate before the switch!

Trainees: your membership is completely free!

👉 Apply for WEO Individual Membership: https://www.worldendo.org/individual-membership

Let’s grow the global endoscopy community together!
