This year the theme for International Women’s Day is “give to gain” and so we celebrate the women who share their knowledge and expertise with the EMS community.
It takes a system to save a life.

Thank you to everyone who attended #EMS2025 this year 💙
Whether you are working this festive period or taking a well-earned break, we wish you all a happy and peaceful time.
Working Together for One Strong European #EMS Community
Earlier this week, the EMS Europe Board met in person at Schiphol Airport for an intensive and inspiring workday, facilitated by Ambulancezorg Nederland (AZN).
The session focused on shaping EMS Europe’s strategic direction towards 2030.
We are celebrating #internationalparamedicsday
This year the theme is “Unity and Community” which speaks to the EMS Europe ethos that “It Takes a System to Save a Life”
It is only by working together that the big challenges in pre-hospital care can be solved and patient outcomes improved.
