Humanitarian Community Members' Stories
There are two ways for you to make your voice heard:
- get involved in your community's discussion zone
- email the editor with a story for the website or a piece for the newsletter: international@rcn.org.uk
The Discussion Zone is easy to use and is an excellent place to share news, views and ideas. Alternatively, if you send in a written feature article or opinion piece it could be published on this page, and possibly in the regular newsletter that goes out to all the humanitarian community members. See the links below for some real-life stories shared by community members.
