The IFNA Student Engagement Group met for the first time at IFNC14 in Washington DC in August 2019. Thirty graduate students and post-graduate early-career researchers attending the conference convened to network and share ideas and contact information.
The objectives of the IFNA Student Engagement Group are:
- to provide a global network of support and resources for all graduate student (and post-graduate early career researcher) members of IFNA
- to encourage the professional growth of IFNA members who are graduate students through collaboration and guidance from IFNA’s leadership, members, mentors, and fellow students
- to provide opportunities for graduate students to collaborate with other IFNA members with similar research interests and advance the science of family nursing
15th International Family Nursing Conference Funding for Student Scholarships from the International Family Nursing Foundation: IFN Foundation special funding for #IFNC15 registration was awarded to 17 students in 2021.
