SCOPH Management: The strength of SCOPH on an international level is the possibility to support SCOPH on a local and national level.

To fulfil this function it is necessary to keep relevant information in a sustainable way, to offer an introduction and further information of our Standing Committee and its activities to all our members.

Therefore it is necessary to give us the possibility to share these information effectively as well as to offer communication platforms to share our ideas and experience.

The responsibility to offer these information‐ and communication‐platforms in an updated and high‐ quality status is by the SCOPH Director. Every SCOPH member has the right and obligation to claim it.
