Humanity: The primary goal of humanitarian work is to alleviate human suffering and
protectlifeandhealth.
Neutrality: Humanitarian organizations must remain neutral in conflicts, providing care
basedonneedalone,withouttakingsides.
Impartiality: Care should be provided without discrimination, and patients should be
treated based on their medical needs, regardless of their political, religious, or ethnic
affiliations.

Respect for Local Practices: Humanitarian organizations must be respectful of local
customs and practices, while also advocating for the best possible medical care. This
requires open communication and collaboration with local healthcare providers and
communityleaders.

Simulation Training: High-fidelity simulators are increasingly being used in surgical
training to assess residents’ technical skills anddecision-making abilities in a controlled
environment. Simulation-based assessments are particularly useful for evaluating
competencyinrareorcomplexprocedures.
18.1.4GlobalVariationinSurgicalResidencyTraining
Surgical residency programs vary widely across countries due to differences in healthcare systems,
regulatorybodies,andeducationalphilosophies.Somecountries,suchastheUnitedStates,Canada,and
