The Global Congress on Dental Education grew out of the DentEdEvolves Thematic Network Project, funded by the European Union's Directorate for Education and Culture. Recognizing the value of collaboration, discussion and shared experiences, the scope of the concept was expanded to include dental educators from all continents.
These meetings were not designed to solve the great challenges facing dental and stomatological education throughout the world. Rather, the participants set out to identify common challenges, share experiences and promote the pooling of intellectual resources.
