Nursing Students and the International Community Health Needs Assessment Project
|
 |
 |
 |
|
| Project Description A special study module has been developed that engages nursing students with other students in Universities in USA (Washburn Kansas, Boston, Utah and Texas) and in Europe (Finland and Portugal). The project, initially funded by a large FIPSE/EU grant (EU-US Cooperation Programme in HE and Vocational Education Training) facilitates nursing students to study the common international public health module at their home institution or abroad. This project encourages debate on public health nursing issues within a global context and enables an opportunity of sharing experiences with nursing students from other countries. During the last 6 years the project has extended to include 3 major international public health nursing research conferences. |
