Strategic Plan Summary
Introduction
Across Europe, stroke accounts for over 1 million deaths each year. The risk of death due to stroke varies substantially between countries, and is more than three times higher in central and eastern Europe than in northern, southern and western Europe.
The vision of the European Stroke Organisation (ESO) is to serve as the voice of stroke in Europe, harmonising stroke management across the whole of Europe, and taking action to reduce the burden of stroke regionally and globally. (Nothing for helping survivors recover)
The society has developed rapidly in recent years, including:
- The launch and steady growth of the European Stroke Organisation Conference (ESOC) to over 4,000 participants
- Exceptional membership growth, from 700 to over 7,000 professionals represented in the society in the period 2014 – 2017
- Geographic expansion and outreach through ESO EAST (Enhancing and Accelerating Stroke Treatment)
- The launch of ESO’s own journal – European Stroke Journal (ESJ)
- Establishing the ESO Stroke Unit and Stroke Centre Certification programme
- Recognition by European institutions of ESO’s leadership in stroke science
In this context, in 2017, ESO leadership undertook a strategic planning exercise to maintain and further develop ESO, and to guide the investment of ESO resources over the next 3 years.
Key Objectives
The principal strategic objectives for ESO in the next 3 years are about ensuring sustainable success, including:
- Maintaining an exceptional level of quality output across ESO
- Continuing to attract the top talent in the field, whether as members, leaders or contributors to ESO projects
- Creating an organisational structure to encourage and facilitate further growth
- Providing reliable and consistently good services to members, customers and partners
- Further growth in individual membership, as well as via national societies and related associations.
Highlighted Projects
To support achieving its mission, ESO runs a wide range of projects in multiple areas, including:
