POGS has a mission to unite its members to strengthen the professional bonds among members to help enhance knowledge, research, and the standards of clinical practice to be able to serve the women better.

The vision statement of the Society reflects this very well. It also takes up advocacy at various government levels with respect to womens’ health and the profession. The administrative year of the Society begins in April with the installation of the new Managing Committee under the leadership of the President.The constitution of the Society guides the functioning of the organization and the past Presidents guide the Managing Committee through their wisdom.
