Welcome to your UEG Community!
Our community continues to grow, and times and communication behaviours are changing. With that comes the need for more effective ways to connect. After careful consideration, it has been decided to discontinue UEG Connect and explore better solutions that meet your needs.
What does this mean for you?
Both the UEG Connect platform and app will no longer be available from June 20, 2026. Before then, we encourage you to save any content or connections you'd like to keep, as this will need to be done manually.
We are actively exploring different ways to help you stay connected with the UEG Community and look forward to sharing more soon.
Our UEG Community is your connection to an international and multidisciplinary digestive health community. A plethora of outstanding free resources and educational activities await you. Become a UEG Associate or UEG Young Associate for free today!
