EM Day 2026: Safe Space for Emergency Medicine Teams
Stop Violence Everywhere
Emergency medicine teams face threats every day, from verbal abuse to physical attacks, both in hospitals and in crisis zones around the world. Violence against those who save lives is never acceptable, and it puts patients, staff, and entire communities at risk.
This EM Day, we stand together to protect the people who care for us in our most urgent moments, calling on the public, healthcare professionals, and policymakers to promote safety, respect, and support for emergency teams. Together, we can make hospitals and emergency departments safe spaces where those who save lives can do their work with dignity and security.
Your donation will be used for EUSEM projects related to topics of EM day.
