What are the One.Surgery community awards?

There is a dire and urgent need to scale up surgical care around the world. Every day, millions of people across the world are unable to access or afford essential, life saving surgical procedures. Thankfully, in every country, in every community, are heroes dedicating their lives – in multiple disciplines, and in different ways, to tackle this problem together. The One.Surgery community awards aims to acknowledge these contributions by asking the community to acknowledge and award excellence in this field of global surgery.

How will the awards be decided?

Award winners will be nominated by, and voted for by the global surgery community. Although the precise terms and conditions have yet to be established, the principle of these awards will always be that it is community supported.

What are the possible award categories?
