In recent decades, the literature on global partnerships in nursing and midwifery education, to enhance the quality of education and produce competent graduates in the labor market, is on the rise in Africa. However, there is a gap regarding the best practices and barriers in the African context. This systematic scoping review aims to map the evidence on academic partnerships in transforming nursing and midwifery education in Africa.
The review will be guided by Arksey and O'Malley's methodology framework through five stages: (1) Identifying the research question, (2) identifying relevant studies, (3) study selection, (4) charting the data, and (5) collecting, summarizing, and reporting the results. A search will be conducted with the use of the following electronic databases: Cumulative Index to Nursing and Applied Health Literature (CINAHL), PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Additional gray literature will be searched via the World Health Organization's website to locate relevant policies and guidelines. The search will be limited to work published in English from 2014 to 2023. All located resources will be exported to EndNote X8. All duplicates will be removed during when the abstracts are screened. Two independent reviewers will screen and extract the full text of the selected articles. Thematic analysis will be used to analyze data from this systematic scoping review.
Mapping the evidence on global partnerships in transforming nursing and midwifery education in Africa will outline the best practices and preferences for sustainable collaboration. The review will also highlight knowledge gaps and limitations that could inform future research projects.
近几十年来，护理学和助产学教育领域的全球伙伴关系文献不断增加，旨在提高教育质量，培养劳动力市场上的合格毕业生。在非洲，这一领域的文献也在不断增加。然而，关于非洲背景下的最佳实践和障碍，仍存在空白。本系统范围综述旨在绘制有关学术伙伴关系的证据，以转变非洲的护理和助产学教育。
本综述将遵循 Arksey 和 O'Malley 的方法框架，通过五个阶段进行：（1）确定研究问题，（2）识别相关研究，（3）研究选择，（4）数据图表，（5）收集、总结和报告结果。将使用以下电子数据库进行搜索：护理与应用健康文献累积索引（CINAHL）、PubMed、ScienceDirect 和 Google Scholar。将通过世界卫生组织的网站搜索额外的灰色文献，以找到相关政策和准则。搜索将限于 2014 年至 2023 年期间以英文发表的工作。所有定位的资源都将导出到 EndNote X8。在筛选摘要时将删除所有重复项。两名独立的审查员将筛选和提取所选文章的全文。将使用主题分析对来自本系统范围综述的资料进行分析。
绘制有关转变非洲护理和助产学教育的全球伙伴关系的证据，将概述可持续合作的最佳实践和偏好。该综述还将突出知识差距和局限性，为未来的研究项目提供信息。
