Welcome!
Bienvenida(o)!
Since 2004, academics from three continents have been working together to offer nurses the opportunity to be educated on global health and nursing issues from a research perspective.
Some of the current challenges for global health include nursing shortage in many countries, professional and care giver migration, violence, inequities in access to health care, and very limited international initiatives for knowledge translation and exchange.
To tackle such issues, nurses should be able to produce knowledge that is simultaneously rigorous and socially relevant for the international community.
The INPhD - International Nursing PhD Collaboration - was created by nursing doctoral programs from the University of Toronto (Canada), University of Ballearic Islands (Spain), University of Melbourne (Australia), and University of Nuevo Leon (Mexico). In 2007, the University of Sydney joined the program followed by the University of Sao Paulo and the University of Turku in 2008. In 2009 the University of Lleida and the Rovira I Virgili Unversity also joined the program. These faculties are working together to create the next generation of global nursing researchers.
