Abstract

CIUDAD-REYNAUD, Manuel Antonio; GUTIERREZ RAMOS, Miguel  and  PACHECO ROMERO, José. A review of a management experience of the Peruvian Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology. Rev. peru. ginecol. obstet. [online]. 2023, vol.69, n.3, 00006.  Epub Oct 16, 2023. ISSN 2304-5132.  http://dx.doi.org/10.31403/rpgo.v69i2547.

Medical societies usually have as their mission and vision the improvement of their members' competencies and therefore academic activities are usually the most important objective. The Sociedad Peruana de Obstetricia y Ginecología (SPOG) is an academic institution, but it has become a reference for women's health and is part of the Advisory Group of the Ministry of Health; it promotes and defends public policies for the benefit of sexual and reproductive health, recently promoting the vaccination of pregnant women against COVID-19 and reducing maternal deaths. In 2023, SPOG defends women's right to emergency contraception before the Constitutional Court and therapeutic abortion before the Supreme Court of Justice. In addition, the Peruvian Journal of Gynecology and Obstetrics (RPGO, for its acronym in Spanish) has been published since 1955 and with the support of the different SPOG boards has recently been indexed in Scopus. In reviewing the latest Strategic Plan 2022-2026, SPOG can be considered a modern academic society that seeks to be self-sustainable through the implementation of projects with external cooperation and with the support of the associates and a modern transparent and efficient administration. Current and future medical societies not only conduct the scientific academic activity of their specialty but also participate in public health policies in the area of their competence.
