This conference looks really interesting but I have to ask the secretariat how they justify fees of £450 or £500 when the topic is on the nursing and midwifery contribution to global health?
How are nurses or midwives expected to be able to afford to attend this? Even those from high income countries will surely find this a barrier?

This high level strategic conference will bring together global healthcare leaders and practitioners to debate future directions and challenges for Nursing & Midwifery as we move forward towards 2030.
Our opening and closing keynote speakers promise to be challenging and inspirational with an unparalleled array of International leaders presenting keynote papers and plenary discussions on the strategic directions for sustainable healthcare and health workforce development, highlighting the contribution of nurses and midwives.
