Our Mission Statement
GASOC (Global Anaesthesia, Surgery and Obstetric Collaboration) was established in 2015 to encourage resident and SAS doctors (specialist, associate specialist and specialty doctors) to engage responsibly and impactfully in global surgery. This collaboration acts as an entry-level platform to signpost healthcare professionals to information and resources that will enable them to further their knowledge and experience in this field. The goal is to increase engagement in global surgery activity during training and to facilitate career-long leadership commitment post qualification. Our strategy: Collaborate - Share medical knowledge and experience with colleagues to advocate for improvement in surgical outcomes in resource-constrained settings. Innovate - Generate new ideas to address global surgery issues. Unite - Create solidarity and partnership with like-minded organisations in global surgery advocacy, be involved in capacity building within resource-constrained settings through research and education, and facilitating bi-directional participation.Administrative HQ
