Global Development: Identifying the barriers to implementing advanced vascular interventions in resource-limited settings, including financial, infrastructural, and educational challenges.
International Collaboration: Discussing how countries with advanced capabilities can contribute to capacity building in regions with limited access, through training, technology transfer, and mentorship programs.
Experience Sharing: Encouraging participants to share successful models, innovations, and strategies that have enhanced vascular intervention practices in their regions.
Sustainability: Examining ways to ensure that newly implemented programs and procedures remain sustainable over time.
The participants to not only share their insights but also propose actionable solutions to bridge the gaps in accessibility and quality of vascular care worldwide."
