1st International Conference of Doctors` Unions
THE 1st INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
OF DOCTORS’ UNIONS
In our view, mutual exchange of ideas and international
cooperation becomes increasingly important as doctors
around the world face similar issues. The conference
therefore provides a platform for the exchange of ideas
and knowledge on topics that are important for salaried
doctors. The main conference topics will be on working
time arrangements and the migration of doctors.
THE MARBURGER BUND
The Marburger Bund is the alliance of all employed
physicians in Germany. As a trade union we engage in
creating better working conditions and call for
adequate payment of hospital doctors in Germany.
With more than 117,000 members the Marburger Bund
is Europe’s largest doctors’ association with voluntary
membership.
1st International Conference

On an international level the Marburger Bund is a
member of the European Federation of Public Service
Unions (EPSU), the European Junior Doctors Permanent
Working Group (EJD) and the EFMA Forum. Additionally
we regularly participate in the meetings of the Standing

Medical Association (WMA) as an observer.
