2 INVITATION On behalf of the Organising Committee and Estonian Gynaecologists Society we are deeply honoured to invite you to the 22nd European Congress of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, which will be held on 9-12 May 2012 in Tallinn, Estonia. The heart of the Congress is of course the scientific programme, designed in the spirit of previous EBCOG Congresses but with even more opportunities for hands-on training and courses. Right now, the Scientific Committee is working diligently to compile an exciting scientific programme including sessions arranged by European subspecialist and specialist societies. The social programme will offer a unique chance for us to meet each other and will include numerous opportunities to explore and enjoy the Mediaeval city and music during its long white spring evenings. We warmly welcome our young colleagues from ENTOG to our training centres in order to exchange experience and further develop networking. It will be the first time that the European Congress will have taken place in Estonia, and it is a great honour and challenge for us to host the Congress. Dear colleagues, we look forward to welcoming you to Tallinn! Prof. Peter Hornnes President of EBCOG Prof. Helle Karro Chair of Local Organising Committee
