New ideas in an old city

Consensus in Paediatrics (CIP) is a new idea dedicated at strengthening the ties between paediatricians across the world. This new and exciting initiative has chosen to hold its first congress in Vienna, an old and historical city in the middle of Europe – the former capital of an empire that maybe, from a historical perspective, was the first attempt at a multinational and multiethical society. The Austrian paediatricians are particularly thrilled and honoured that the capital of their country will be the venue of the first CIP congress.

Vienna today is an exciting city, vibrant with life, abundant in cultural opportunities, beautifully located, full of historical sites – all this before the background of a lifestyle, accommodation and gastronomy of the finest international standard. As the capital of Austria it can be seen as a gateway to a country of unique beauty, characterised by the eastern Alps, abundant with mountains, lakes, rivers, meadows and forests, thus offering countless opportunities for travelling, sports, cultural activities, relaxation and sightseeing.

The local committee extends its cordial welcome to all participants of this congress and is confident that those who choose to attend can expect an exciting experience, characterised by the unique blend of an exciting congress and a charming city and country.
