Globally, more than 70% of trauma-related deaths occur in Lower- and Middle-Income Countries. And in the Kankan region, much like in the rest of Africa, traumatology is first cause of handicap, mortality before infectious disease and AIDS.

​

The concept is simple and cost efficient. The traumatology center would be assembled locally from imported modules, Equipment – op-theater, an ICU, X-ray radiology and a CT scan – would be provided through donations from the compulsory renewal depots of supporting medical facilities in the US or Europe.

​

Maintenance of this equipment could be done with support from local non-governmental organizations. Financial donations are excluded. Care will be provided by local doctors. There is a medical team on site to which we will provide continuous mentoring and capacity uplift through remote teaching and refresher courses.
