摘要

We are proud to announce the formation of the African Federation for Emergency Medicine (AFEM), dedicated to "Supporting Emergency Care Across Africa". Lee Wallis, President of the Emergency Medicine Society for South Africa (EMSSA), organised several meetings on this and other topics during the 2nd EMSSA "Emergency Medicine in the Developing World" Conference, held from 24-26 November, 2009, at the Cape Town International Conference Centre. The AFEM will act as a formative, "umbrella" organisation for all the existing and future African National EMERGENCY MEDICINE Societies.
