Abstract:
The Canadian Association of Nurses in Oncology/Association Canadienne des Infirmières en Oncologie (CANO/ACIO) is committed to being an influencing force globally. Its role in international work has been an important aspect of the Strategic Plan over the past five years. Beginning in 2015, following an environmental scan, literature review, and member input, the "Framework for International Engagement, Exchange, Influence and Partnerships" was articulated. This article focuses on experiences and exemplars of work in international settings that focus on symptom management, supportive care, education, and the integration of the CANO standards and competencies into other settings. Exemplars from East Africa (Rwanda and Kenya) and Central America (Costa Rica) in which CANO/ACIO members were involved will be highlighted.
