At Global Surgery Umbrella (GSU), we believe that everyone deserves access to safe, timely, and affordable anesthesia, nursing, and surgical care — no matter who they are or where they live.

GSU is a network that connects ‘Problem Holders’ and ‘Solution Providers’ to collaboratively work towards reducing the structural inequalities that prevent access to care.

The Marketplace for Global Surgery

Access to safe, timely, and affordable care is not a reality to the world’s most vulnerable populations. This is why GSU believes a space is needed to address these structural inequalities that hinder access to anesthesia, nursing, and surgical care, everywhere.

VISION

 A world in which patients can safely and affordably receive high-quality, sustainable, and resilient anesthesia, nursing, and surgical care on demand, regardless of their identities and their social, political, and economic position in the world.

PROBLEM STATEMENT

To facilitate processes, policies, and programs that ensure greater access to safe, timely, and affordable anesthesia, nursing, and surgical care worldwide.
