Message from the President

Dear Colleagues, Friends, and Visitors,

Welcome to the official website of the Federation of Asia-Oceania Perinatal Societies (FAOPS)!

FAOPS has long served as a vital platform for collaboration among perinatal health professionals across our diverse region, promoting research, education, and policy advancement in maternal and neonatal care.

The Asia-Oceania region presents both unique challenges and significant opportunities in the field of perinatal medicine. From rapidly evolving healthcare systems to disparities in resources and outcomes, our mission is to bridge these gaps, facilitate the exchange of knowledge, and foster innovations that ultimately benefit mothers, infants, and families in all member countries.

As the President, I am committed to strengthening our collective voice and expanding FAOPS’s presence within the global perinatal community. We will continue to support academic congresses, practical workshops, and educational initiatives that empower healthcare providers throughout the region. At the same time, we will advocate forequitable access to high-quality perinatal care, guided by evidence, compassion, and collaboration. I warmly invite you to explore our website, engage with colleagues across borders, and join us in our shared mission to improve perinatal health outcomes in Asia and Oceania. Thank you for your continued support and dedication.

Warm regards,

Han-Suk Kim, M.D., Ph.D.
Republic of Korea
President, Federation of Asia-Oceania Perinatal Societies (FAOPS)
