The Surgical Society of Ethiopia is the organiser of the 13th Annual General Meeting of College of Surgeons of East, Central and Southern Africa (COSESCA). The host, President of the Surgical Society of Ethiopia, DR. Miliard Derbew noted that since they first hosted the AGM in 2002, many changes have taken place in Ethiopia, including the establishment of new medical schools. The Society plays an important role in the development of surgery across disciplines and in the training of Ethiopian surgeons. The society is also very active working for the upliftment of the general health status of the country, including through surgery camps, having performed over 3000 surgeries across Ethiopia, especially in rural areas. In 2012, the Ethiopian government accredited the Society’s programme, as the premier accreditation and training body for surgeons. Training is done in hospitals, limiting displacement of doctors whilst they are training. At the same time, it helps hospitals to improve their facilities and in turn improve services to their communities.
