It aims to promote a unifying theme of quality of endoscopy within ESGE activities, achieved by collaborating with other ESGE committees and working groups, and underpinned by a clear “quality improvement framework”. ESGE QIC aims to assist all endoscopy units and endoscopists in achieving these standards. This endeavour is endorsed and co-funded by UEG.
