The Global Emergency Care Community of Practice (GECCoP), facilitated by the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine (ACEM), aims to bring together like-minded individuals to share ideas, innovations and opportunities in global emergency care (GEC). This informal community-led forum was established in 2022 and encourages communication and partnership between individuals and organisations engaged in GEC capacity development across the Indo-Pacific region. GECCoP meets virtually twice per year, providing a forum for resource sharing, networking, and mutual learning among the GEC community.
GECCoP is currently co-chaired by Dr Donna Mills (FACEM chair) and Ms Sarah Bornstein (non-medical chair).
