The First International Research Capacity-Building Program for Nurses to Study the Drug Phenomenon in the Americas is a result of a partnership between the Inter-American Drug Abuse Control Commission (CICAD) of the Organization of American States (OAS) and the Faculty of Nursing in the University of Alberta, with financial support from the Government of Canada. The program was divided into two parts. The first part of the program was held at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It involved capacity-building in research methodologies at the Faculty of Nursing, which lead to the preparation of four multi-centric research proposals for drug demand reduction in the home countries of the eleven participants in the program. The second part of the program was related to the implementation of multi-centric research proposals in seven countries in Latin America and in Canada. This program presented expertise in research methodology to members of Latin American Schools of Nursing and introduced Latin American expertise to members of a Canadian Faculty of Nursing. The International Research Capacity-Building Program for Nurses to Study the Drug Phenomenon in the Americas has fostered the kind of inter-cultural respect and mutual appreciation necessary to confront the global health problem of the abuse of both licit and illicit drugs.
首个美洲护士研究毒品现象国际研究能力建设项目是美洲国家组织（OAS）的美洲药物滥用管制委员会（CICAD）与阿尔伯塔大学护理学院合作的成果，并获得了加拿大政府的资金支持。该项目分为两个部分。项目的第一部分在加拿大阿尔伯塔省埃德蒙顿的阿尔伯塔大学举行。它涉及护理学院研究方法的能力建设，这促成了为该项目11名参与者所在国家编写4份减少毒品需求的多中心研究提案。项目的第二部分与在拉丁美洲7个国家和加拿大实施多中心研究提案有关。该项目向拉丁美洲护理学院成员介绍了研究方法方面的专业知识，并向加拿大护理学院成员介绍了拉丁美洲的专业知识。首个美洲护士研究毒品现象国际研究能力建设项目促进了应对合法和非法药物滥用这一全球健康问题所需的那种跨文化尊重和相互欣赏。
