IFNC13 Conference co-chairs,
June Horowitz (USA) and
Jane Lassetter (USA)
are excited to announce that once again there will be a raffle at IFNC13 in Pamplona. The raffle is an enjoyable way to enhance the international flavor of the conference and raise money for IFNA. You can participate in two ways: 1) donating one or more items, and 2) purchasing raffle tickets and trying to win selected items during the conference. For donated items, we suggest thinking about something from your country that is not hard to transport.
All
Country Liaisons
are invited to a self-pay dinner that will be held at IFNC13 on the evening of June 15, 2017 at the Museum at the University of Navarra, in Pamplona. The intention is to network with all of the Country Liaisons, who have contributed so much effort to marketing IFNC13 in their respective countries, along with the UK & Ireland Family Nursing Chapter colleagues. Please contact IFNA Member,
