Women in GI are an integral part of the UEG Community, which brings together professionals committed to strengthening the role and visibility of women in digestive health. The initiative fosters peer-to-peer mentoring, networking and role modelling across career stages, creating spaces where experiences, knowledge and opportunities can be shared. 

Through dedicated networking events, community activities and visibility initiatives at UEG Week and throughout the year, Women in GI aim to support professional development, inspire future leaders and contribute to a more inclusive and equitable field. These initiatives are complemented by the work of the Equality & Diversity Group, which continues to advance concrete actions and dialogue on equality, diversity and inclusive career pathways in digestive health.
