Abstract
Special Session presented on: Monday, November 18, 2013:
The purpose of this session is for the International Service Taskforce members to discuss various aspects of international nursing service and volunteerism, within local, regional, national, and international/global contexts. The session presenters will provide attendees with information about engaging in, evaluating and sustaining service and service-related partnerships -- at the member, chapter and regional level. During this session, presenters will discuss and provide ideas and practical examples of ways that international service activities help to address Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). We will provide attendees with guidelines and recommendations for international nursing service activities and discuss/summarize lessons learned individually and collectively from taskforce members. We will provide attendees with information about available international service resources such as books, education/training and opportunities, including STTI-specific resources and opportunities.
