The Association of Nurses in AIDS Care (ANAC) will host a collaborative networking zone for nurses and nurse allies, other members of the healthcare team, advocates and community members. We will have scheduled presentations and discussion sessions in a comfortable and pleasant space for networking. socializing and guided dialogue.
Our focus is to support the many roles of nurses and contributions of nurses in the HIV response, policy and advocacy, global health and social justice. Presentations and guided discussions will centre on the intersections of HIV and co-morbidities with racism, ageing, gender equality, sexual identity, poverty and other social justice factors and the impact on health outcomes on key populations and other vulnerable communities. The zone will have a nursing focus – but all attendees are invited to stop by and show your support for the nursing workforce!
