Over time, NIGH's work and outreach has continued to grow. In the ramp-up to the 2010 International Year of the Nurse, NIGH's core team members have made related keynote presentations in Athens, Bangkok, Beijing, Caracas, Chicago, Istanbul, London, Mumbai, New York City, Quebec City, Ottawa, Seoul, Toronto, Washington, DC. We have also facilitated related workshops in leadership, development and media capacities in Asia and across the US and Canada.
