	<blockquote>Rowan Nicks travelled extensively overseas and this was recognised in September 1995 when he was made an Honorary Fellow of the International Society of Surgery. Rowan saw not only the need to have the very best in Australia and New Zealand, but a duty to help in countries less advanced than our own. He taught in Africa and the legacy of his teaching remains there. The units he established have continued to grow and prosper to bring health to those countries. When Rowan was no longer able to contribute personally so much to underdeveloped countries, he established a fund at the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons to provide scholarships for surgeons from underdeveloped countries to expand their surgical education and training in Australia and New Zealand. ‘Rowan Nicks’ Fellows, under this scheme, have come to our country from Malaysia, Bangladesh, Nigeria, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, and China, and have been trained and gone back to their own countries to help the local population.</blockquote>		<blockquote>Rowan Nicks travelled extensively overseas and this was recognised in September 1995 when he was made an Honorary Fellow of the International Society of Surgery.
