Asian Pacific Emergency Disaster Nursing Network (APEDNN)

Date: Ongoing
WHO CC involvement: Michele Rumsey

The Asian Pacific Emergency Disaster Nursing Network (APEDNN) meets annually to network with colleagues from across the region, share ideas and further the work of emergency and disaster nursing. The WHO CC UTS as Secretariat for the South Pacific Chief Nursing and Midwifery Alliance continues to support the APEDNN and has conducted a region-wide survey on disaster relief. The WHO CC UTS has developed an internal working group of professors and regulation experts at UTS who are focusing on disaster and emergency response. This working group will feed into APEDNN work.
