AYNLA launches the Nurses' Black-out Campaign 2011 | Mulat Pinoy-Kabataan News Network (MP-KNN)

From our partner organization, the Alliance of Young Nurse Leaders and Advocates.

Over 200,000 nurses are unemployed, underemployed & abused in the Philippines. Many of us are overworked but extremely underpaid. Help us gather awareness & support by changing your profile picture to pitch black from January 01-11,2011. It is time we take care of our prime care professionals! Appreciate your Nurses, take care of them – like they take care of you. Join the campaign now!

Main Objectives:

1. To utilize social media as a tool for nurses’ rights awareness building;
2. To initiate social & mass mobilizations in relation to the protection of nurses’ rights;
3. To garner online & non-online support from individuals, organizations and communities to end all forms of discrimination and abuse to nurses in the workplaces and communities.
