About the Society
Hellenic Society of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology
Who We Are
The Hellenic Society of Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology (HSPAG) was established to address a critical and often overlooked area of medical science: the gynecological care of girls from infancy through adolescence.
Driven by the need for specialized knowledge and sensitivity toward the unique needs of this age group, the Society was founded by professionals from a range of disciplines — including gynecology, pediatrics, psychology, and education.
Why Our Work Matters
Pediatric and adolescent gynecology goes far beyond medical examinations. It encompasses the physical, psychological, and sexual health of young girls, aiming to provide accurate information, prevention strategies, and meaningful support during a sensitive and formative stage of life. We believe that early, scientifically sound interventions can shape healthy attitudes, strengthen self-esteem, and prevent future health issues.
What We Do
HSPAG is active across multiple areas:
– Scientific Conferences and Seminars
We organize annual national congresses and scientific events aimed at educating healthcare professionals and raising public awareness.
– Research and Academic Collaboration
We participate in research programs and develop partnerships with academic institutions and public health bodies.
– Educational Programs for Adolescents and Parents
We design school-based awareness programs and offer counseling services for teenagers, parents, and educators.
– Digital Tools for Youth
We have recently developed SEXED, an innovative mobile application providing adolescents with reliable, age-appropriate information on sexual and reproductive health.
Our Goals
-To establish Pediatric and Adolescent Gynecology as a distinct and recognized field of
medical practice in Greece.
-To raise awareness and educate healthcare professionals, parents, and the general public.
-To promote research and scientific evidence related to girls’ and adolescents’ health.
-To support adolescents through their transition to adulthood with respect, empathy, and professional integrity.
Our Vision
A world where every child and adolescent girl has access to accurate information, quality healthcare, and a supportive environment, enabling her to grow with health, dignity, and confidence.
Together, we are shaping a healthier future for the next generation of young girls. We invite you to learn more about our work and join us in this important mission.
