Global Health and Nursing

Global health and nursing play a pivotal role in addressing health disparities, improving healthcare access, and promoting well-being worldwide. Nurses are at the forefront of providing essential care in diverse settings, from urban centers to remote regions, often working to combat infectious diseases, malnutrition, and inadequate healthcare infrastructure. Global health nursing involves not only treating individuals but also advocating for public health policies, conducting research, and collaborating with international organizations to improve health outcomes on a global scale. Nurses in this field must be culturally competent and adaptable, as they navigate complex global health challenges, including pandemics, environmental changes, and social determinants of health. By applying their expertise across borders, nurses contribute significantly to global efforts to reduce health inequities and promote sustainable health practices.
