A Celebration of Nursing Around the World: Sustaining progress against the odds

We are keen to bring together nurses from around the world who want to celebrate their professional achievements and those of others around them, then consider ways of working together to advance nursing and its impact.

At the same time we would like to showcase their work to funders and others interested to support their work as a basis for nurturing relationships that are mutually beneficial.

This conference is jointly delivered by St Christopher’s CARE and ICPCN.

ICPCN is the global umbrella organisation for children’s palliative care, with a mission to achieve the best quality of life and care for children and young people with life-threatening or life-limiting conditions, their families and carers worldwide

Those attending this half day virtual event can expect:

To hear about innovative nursing approaches that improve the experience of dying and grief despite significant challenge
To be encouraged in their efforts to advance end of life care through nursing activity or related support
To hear about a new global palliative nursing network and the opportunity to help shape and become part of it

To learn more about opportunities for nurses to advance their practice and confidence via St Christopher’s CARE moving forward
