Interplast Australia & New Zealand (Interplast) is a not-for-profit organisation that has delivered over 26,800 life-changing surgeries in 25 countries.
CEO Cameron Glover says their key point of innovation is training local medical professionals to take the lead themselves:
“Countless lives have been made better and not just the people who have been operated on, but their families and the broader community have benefited.”
Turia Pitt, a proud Interplast Ambassador, says she has “...a new-found respect for the surgeons, anaesthetists and nurses that travel to developing countries, with the ultimate aim of improving the quality of people’s lives.”
