Samir Foundation Launches Basic Suturing Skills Program for Medical Students in Gaza
As part of its continued commitment to empowering healthcare education in Gaza, Samir Foundation is proud to announce the launch of the Basic Suturing Skills Project, a vital initiative aimed at equipping sixth-year medical students with essential surgical competencies.
This hands-on training program provides students with practical skills in suturing techniques—an indispensable component of emergency and clinical care. The project was designed to respond to the critical need for surgical preparedness among future doctors, especially amid the immense challenges facing the healthcare sector in Gaza.
“In the face of widespread shortages and system strain, we believe that investing in practical medical education is both urgent and transformative,” said a representative of the Samir Foundation. “By equipping students with core surgical skills before graduation, we ensure they are ready to contribute meaningfully to patient care and emergency services.”
The training sessions include supervised practice, clinical scenarios, and access to professional surgical kits. The project also reflects the Foundation’s broader mission to strengthen local capacity, support medical resilience, and uphold the right to quality healthcare for all.
Samir Foundation remains steadfast in its efforts to support the next generation of physicians in Gaza—those who will become the backbone of the region’s healthcare system. Through initiatives like this, the Foundation continues to pave the way for a healthier, more self-reliant future.
