The VAST SIMposium got off to a strong start with great enthusiasm from the 60 participants. The day included a 'getting-to-know-you' exercise where people switched chairs to meet their colleagues, introduction to the VAST FORM, and practicing running and debriefing scenarios.

Participants from 21 countries are all heading to Nairobi, Kenya to begin the VAST Simposium. Here are some of the course materials ready for transport. @wfsaorg @DalAnesthesia @DalMedSchool @SAFE_courses @Rwandanesthesia
