Sigma Theta Tau International's (STTI) Biennial Conventions

WHO CC involvement: Michele Rumsey

2015: 43rd Biennial Convention in Las Vegas, USA

In November 2015, Michele Rumsey represented WHO CC UTS at this international nursing conference which is held every two years. The Convention theme for 2015 was ‘Serve Locally, Transform Regionally, Lead Globally’. Sessions aimed to explore innovative strategies to promote excellence in global nursing.

Ms Rumsey attended on behalf of WHO CC, facilitated a side meeting of WHO CCs at the event and also attended a meeting of representatives from the Global Advisory Panel on the Future of Nursing.

STTI’s Conferences are world renowned and WHO CC UTS’s participation increases our standing and visibility with international peers, providing a platform to advocate for Western Pacific nurses and midwives.
