Information on EWMA
EWMA was founded in 1991 at a conference in Cardiff to address clinical and scientific issues associated with wound healing represented by medical, nursing, scientific and pharmaceutical interests. One of the aims of this meeting was to draw on expertise from professionals throughout Europe. With this aim in view a council was formed with members from the UK and mainland Europe, so that EWMA would be able to have direct links with the wound healing societies in these countries.
To promote advancement of education and research into native epidemiology, pathology, diagnosis, prevention and management of wounds of all aetiologies.
To hold conferences on aspects of wound management throughout Europe.
