Criteria for Meeting Endorsement

Athanasios J. Manolis, Krzysztof Narkiewicz, Sverre E. Kjeldsen, Renata Cifková, and Giuseppe Mancia for the ESH Council

The aim of the ESH is threefold:

  1. To disseminate the latest information regarding optimal approaches for diagnosis and management of hypertension
  2. To provide a forum for presentation of research by investigators
  3. To provide training and credentialing of hypertensive specialists

The ESH wishes to cooperate at various levels with the National and International Hypertension Societies that share its goals, and endorse international meetings related to hypertension and cardiovascular prevention and therapy with a balanced scientific content.

Endorsement will be given by the ESH to International Meetings or Symposia with international participation if they meet the following criteria:

  1. The application should be submitted in advance to give the ESH Council member(s) sufficient time to discuss the issue.
  2. The application needs to be accompanied by the scientific program of the meeting and the roster of the speakers. It also needs to be accompanied by a short history of the meeting(s) and the scientific program(s) of the previous meeting(s).
  3. An especially-assigned ESH Council member, who is not directly involved in the meeting activity, will handle the application. An early assessment will be given to meeting organisers, i.e. if the scientific meeting fulfils the above criteria the organisers will receive a preliminary endorsement from the ESH Council member,  the assessment will be submitted at the next ESH Council meeting for formal approval.
  4. Pre- or Post-Congress Satellite Symposia of the ESH meetings and ESH Teaching Faculty Symposia will be automatically endorsed.

Applications should be sent to:

Mandy Elgner
ESH Program Coordinator

ESH website:

All meetings endorsed by the ESH will be displayed on the Society’s website, so people from different countries may be informed in advance and decide whether they would like to participate.
