Nursing has a unique opportunity to address issues of structural violence that contribute to poor health outcomes. Models for designing nursing care relative to the social determinants of health can be adapted from the discipline of peace studies and the phenomenon of peacebuilding. The aim of this qualitative study was to describe the lived experience of peacebuilding from the perspective of community or public health nurses. Interviews were conducted with eight participants. Attributes of the peacebuilder included fostering human relationships that value the inherent worth and dignity of others, nurturing a character of humility and moral courage, and contemplating the personal cost of engaging in prolonged processes of peacebuilding. Practices of peacebuilding included mediating conflict through multilayered processes, accompanying others to places of empowerment, and utilizing interdisciplinary teaching and learning to build capacity for change. Increasing an understanding of the lived experience of peacebuilding by nurses is relevant to nursing research, theory, and practice, and adds to a broader understanding of peacebuilding.
护理工作拥有独特的契机来解决导致健康状况不佳的结构性暴力问题。相对于健康的社会决定因素而言,设计护理服务的模式可以借鉴和平研究学科及建设和平现象。这项定性研究的目的是从社区或公共卫生护士的角度描述建设和平的生活经历。对八位参与者进行了访谈。建设和平者的特质包括培养重视他人内在价值和尊严的人际关系、培养谦逊和道德勇气的品质,以及思考参与长期建设和平过程的个人代价。建设和平的实践包括通过多层次过程调解冲突、陪伴他人前往赋权之地,以及利用跨学科教学来培养变革能力。增进护士对建设和平生活经历的理解与护理研究、理论和实践相关,并有助于更广泛地理解建设和平。
