Who is this section for?

This section is open to all nurses and midwives who are working directly or indirectly in the area of Inclusion Health, including those working in academia with a special interest in Inclusion Health.

Mission Statement

The INMO Inclusion Health Section is an active interest group of nursing and midwifery professionals (including nurse practitioners, educators, researchers) working in areas where health care disparities exist among socially excluded people, due to discrimination, lack of awareness, lack of information and education.

Examples of these practice areas include homeless health, migrant/refugee health, Traveller health, mental health, disability health, forensic and prisoner health, addiction health and sexual health. 

The aims of the INMO Inclusion Health section are to share and develop excellence in nursing and midwifery, to professionally challenge the causes of systemic health care disparities and negative health care outcomes, and to inform and work collectively towards finding solutions in keeping with ethical and professional nursing standards.
