2024 was a monumental year for Train the Trainers. Most notably, we offered our first Portuguese-language course, #TTTFortaleza, in Brazil. This landmark course was also the first to have a majority female participation, reflecting WGO’s commitment to uplift #WomeninGI. 54 participants and 10 faculty members from eight countries gathered to enhance their abilities and educational skills, all while broadening their international network. A special thank you to the Federa??o Brasileira de Gastroenterologia for their collaboration on this unforgettable course!
