| Abstrakt: | Until recently, surgery had been passed over in the domain of global health, historically being described as "the neglected stepchild of global health." Knowledge of the existing global disparities in neurosurgical care has led to neurosurgery capacity-building efforts especially in low-income and middle-income countries. While many global collaborative projects are currently undertaken with philanthropic support, sustainability and scalability are not likely without governmental adoption of neurosurgery-inclusive national surgical plans. Momentum grows for the global neurosurgery community to develop a global neurosurgery action plan outlining goals, a guiding framework, an execution plan, and indicators for monitoring and evaluation.
