TAKING SURGERY TO THE COMMUNITY! At the Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Conference held at Speke Resort Munyonyo, Prof. Moses Galukande presented on "Taking Surgery to the Community", highlighting the impact of the Association of Surgeons of Uganda @ASOU_Official #ASOUAnnualSurgicalCamps . Aligned with the conference theme of "positioning community structures as the foundation of Primary Health Care (PHC)", the key takeaways include: ♂️Redefining Surgery: Prof. Galukande challenged the narrative of surgery as the "neglected stepchild" of global health, re-emphasizing that surgical care is preventive, cost-effective, and deliverable at all levels of care. ♂️ Government Commitment: Dr. Ayume Charles @DrAyumeCharles State Minister of Health for PHC committed to championing budget appropriations in Parliament to support the logistics of these pro bono outreach services. This is what progress looks like. #SurgeryIsPublicHealth #ASOU #ASOUSurgucalCamp
