This innovative text for graduate and undergraduate nursing
students fills a void in global health nursing literature by
providing essential tools and strategies for building and
sustaining productive international partnerships. Based on the
premise that partnership is paramount for sustainable outcomes, the
book demonstrates how nurses can build sustainable health programs
that will improve health outcomes worldwide. Written by two highly
experienced global nurses, the book offers expert guidance gained
from many years of successful involvement in international
collaboration that is supported by detailed real-life examples. It
will be of particular interest to nurse educators who undertake
projects with their students to ensure that both students and host
partners are able to meet their collaborative goals. Additionally,
the text provides information that will help nurse educators to
perpetuate a successful educational program even after they depart
or funding ends.
Case studies from many different perspectives demonstrate
positive change effected by nurses working across international
boundaries and within their own countries. The text builds on the
Conceptual Framework for Partnership and Sustainability in Global
Health Nursing developed by Leffers and Mitchell (2010).
Additionally, the book reflects the focus on global health
competence for nurses in the future (IOM, 2011) as well as that of
the American Academy's of Nursing's recently established committee
on Global Health.
