Education in Child Neurology: The Role of the International Child Neurology Association (ICNA)

Recent progress in pediatric neurosciences has greatly increased the divide between the possibilities for diagnosis and intervention among developed countries and resource-poor countries, where child neurologists suffer from the lack of adequate training, the absence of a network with professionals around the world, and the shortage of infrastructure. The International Child Neurology Association (ICNA) is the only child neurology association that can deal with these important issues and promote the reduction of this gap. In this article, the author reviews the role played by ICNA in the past 2 decades in supporting education worldwide, in offering teaching seminars and visits by senior members, and in addressing the needs of the global community of child neurologists. The challenges and success of ICNA in the promotion of educational resources and recommendations for the future are discussed.
