WCA countdown
The World Congress of Anaesthesiologists (WCA) is less than a month away! Lifebox is off to Hong Kong with our chair and keynote speaker Atul Gawande, to join hosts (and Lifebox co-founders) the World Federation Societies of Anaesthesiologists (WFSA) for this once-in-a-four-year-cycle event.
With delegates flying in from the WFSA’s 134 member national societies, it’s a landmark meeting of language, culture, collegiality and of course – global anaesthesia.
Lifebox WCA-debuted in Buenos Aires in 2012, and in the years that followed we’ve been lucky to work with many of the WFSA member societies. We’ve made a global impact precisely because of our partners who take us with them, and we’re proud to work together to make safer anaesthesia a global reality.
Join us online throughout August as we celebrate these amazing national societies that have helped us MAKE IT 0® in every corner of the map.

We’re so proud to work with the WFSA and its member societies for safer anaesthesia around the world. Thanks to ongoing support from these national societies we’ve made surgery and anaesthesia safer for 10 million people worldwide.
