Preparing nurse leaders for the new millennium: The ICN Leadership for Change project

Now in its fourth year, the ICN Leadership For Change (LFC) project has reached 145 nurses from 44 countries. Hundreds of additional nurses are influenced by LFC programmes through participant projects developed and implemented at the country level. The LFC project is offered in the Caribbean, the South Pacific, Latin America, and in the countries of East, Central and Southern Africa. The Asian region is also included through a new program underway in Singapore. ICN Nurse Consultant Sally Shaw, BN, BA (Hons), MPH, who manages the LFC project, describes its successes.
