Dear all,

I realised that GHHG unfortunately does not have a community yet concerning the very important area of ECO care (emergency, critical and operative care), and I think that is something we should work on together!

Surgery and operative care is such a broad field, and includes besides common trauma care (now especially important in conflict and disaster zones), also significant parts of women's health (maternal health, FGM, breast cancer), child care, oncological care, pain management, emergency medicine, etc etc. There are already a few very good national and european/international organisations who focus on that, but I think it would be great if we could use our place and connections here as well!

Are you a surgeon, a gynaecologist, an anaethesiologist or someone else working in a sugical/operative field? Do you know someone that dows and would be interested?
What are your general thoughts about a Global Surgery Community?

Please let me know what you think!
Looking forward to hearing back from you,
Charlotte
