Rapid transformations in our globalizing world means there is an urgency for nurse educators to revitalize curricula to prepare nurses better for practice and the emphasis on achieving global health for all has never been greater. Nurses are being urged to collaborate across borders to achieve the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals, through research, practice, policy and education. Thus, nurse educators and leaders need to consider the critical importance of internationalizing nurses' education at all levels, as well being committed to their roles in curricula reform and using innovative technology. There are challenges to internationalization, but the benefits include helping nurses to grow cultural competence, developing strength in nursing voices globally, capacity building in global health, health policy and advocacy, growing scholarship in nursing across borders, developing the skills and knowledge of nurses from low-income countries, and forming partnerships to work together to achieve global health.
在我们这个日益全球化的世界中,快速变革意味着护理教育工作者迫切需要振兴课程,以便让护士更好地为实践做好准备,而且实现全民全球健康的重点从未像现在这样突出。人们敦促护士跨境合作,通过研究、实践、政策和教育来实现联合国的可持续发展目标。因此,护理教育工作者和领导者需要认识到在各级将护士教育国际化的至关重要性,同时致力于课程改革并运用创新技术。国际化存在挑战,但好处包括帮助护士培养文化能力、增强全球护理领域的影响力、进行全球健康、卫生政策及宣传方面的能力建设、促进跨境护理学术发展、提升低收入国家护士的技能和知识,以及建立伙伴关系共同努力实现全球健康。
