Change and challenge. ICN during the 1970s & 1980s.
NEW leadership, new goals and a new found fiscal stability helped the International Council of Nurses (ICN) greatly expand its influence in international nursing during the decades of the 1970s and 1980s. While improving the socio-economic and professional welfare of nurses remained a top priority for the organisation, ICN also increased its involvement in other global health matters. ICN was challenged by issues ranging from the apartheid policies of South Africa to nuclear testing to the emergence of the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
