"Am I the only anesthesiologist in the room? Uh oh." Dr. Joel Parlow CAS IEF delivers #BRT2023 Keynote Address, stressing ❗️ of #GlobalAnesthesia partnerships. But, as a #GlobalSurgery community, we clearly need to better engage our anesthesia colleagues as equal partners.

(56/76) #GlobalHealth partnerships & organizations often do not represent the frontline workers they engage & the communities they (seek to) serve. E.g., women make up 70% of global health workforce but only 25% of senior positions. womeningh.org/wp-content/upl… #WHA76 #HealthForAll

Proud of my incredible colleagues Anisa Nazir and Dominique Vervoort as they speak about decarbonizing #globalsurgery at Bethune Roundtable 2023. Great panel of expertise with different perspectives on how to address the #climate crisis and it’s relationship to surgical care

📢👏📢👏 The 2024 Bethune Round Table will take place in Ethiopia 🇪🇹, making #BRT2024 the 1st edition of Bethune–a pan-🇨🇦 #GlobalSurgery effort for 22 years–to take place in an LMIC. Visa barriers prevented many to join us in Toronto for #BRT2023. It's time for that to change.

Glad to have reached my running goal of 200km in May for #MillionReasonsRun. Days of 📢 #HealthForAll at #WHA76 helps remind us that everyone, everywhere, deserves a chance to live a healthy life. Still 36 hours to support my fundraiser for SickKids Foundation: millionreasons.run/fundraisers/do…

"For sustainable impact, global surgery needs to become a topic of debate and discussion in local media... Global surgery will not truly be a ‘global’ problem unless it first becomes a ‘local’ problem" Our latest editorial is out in BMJ Global Health gh.bmj.com/content/8/6/e0…

Surgery & anesthesia have ⬆️ carbon footprints. Scaling access to essential surgical care 🌐 ⚠️ but could result in billions of CO2 equivalents. #Sustainability will be 🔑, yet only 2 NSOAPs & 6% of assessment tools address 🌱 issues. The Lancet Planetary Health: thelancet.com/journals/lanpl…
