The Seminar is organized by the

• International Federation of Professional Abortion and Contraception Associates (FIAPAC),
• Russian Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology and
• Research Centre of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Perinatology.

The aim of this International Seminar is to exchange scientific data, modern achievements in safe abortion and contraception. I hope that the Seminar will provide continuing medical education for young gynecologists too. I am confident, that this Seminar will appeal to the wide range of interests of our participants and guests.
The Seminar will truly be a global experience, an international extravaganza socially, culturally, and professionally.
Besides the professional benefits, the Seminar provides several other opportunities - that of renewing old acquaintances, new friendships, meeting renowned scientists and perhaps extending an invitation to them to be part of one's own regional and national annual meetings.
