Diversity in all its dimensions strengthens the surgical profession. Diversity and inclusion are part of the wider work we are undertaking in the College to build a culture of respect in surgery. There is considerable advantage to having the Fellowship of our College reflect the diversity of the community that we are privileged to serve. Read on to learn about the breadth of our surgeons working rurally and regionally across our two countries, Australia’s first female paediatric surgeon, and how the College celebrated International Women’s Day. At the College we believe that celebrating our many parts makes us a greater whole.
