I extend a heartfelt invitation to you for an event that promises to be an absolute blast while addressing critical issues that affect us all.
Sustainable Urology: The Path from Orange to Green
We are thrilled to be hosting this event that brings together the vibrant community of Orange, NSW, and the issue of sustainability in urology and healthcare. Your presence at this event would not only enhance its success but also contribute to an essential conversation.
With increasing pressure on resources, the hospital systems, and our own working lives, minimising their impact is foremost in our minds. We aim to explore sustainable practices and innovations in surgery that can mitigate these effects and create a healthier future for all. We’ll also explore efficiencies in urological practice from operating theatre utilisation to building a sustainable career.
Known as Australia’s food basket, Orange and the Central West has built a more recent reputation as a foodie paradise. Orange is a place rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. Our event will not only showcase the great things that Orange has to offer but also highlight the importance of preserving and protecting our environment. From its lush landscapes to its commitment to sustainability, Orange is a shining example of a community working towards a greener future.
