Empowering Healthcare Education: Collaboration with Bangladesh
Health Project
At Nurses International, we are proud to have collaborated with esteemed educators at the Bangladesh Health Project to make open education resources available to nurses and nurse educators globally.
Since 2003, volunteers from the Bangladesh Health Project have tirelessly dedicated themselves to advancing healthcare education in Bangladesh. Initially, they joined forces with Dhaka’s International University of Business Agriculture and Technology (IUBAT) to establish a nursing school. Over time, this collaboration expanded to encompass broader educational initiatives such as the administrative resources Dr. Karen Lund and Alex Berland developed. These valuable resources, available for free download, have empowered novice nurse educators worldwide, perfectly aligning with our mutual commitment to accessible, high-quality healthcare education.
This collaboration signifies the ongoing efforts of The Bangladesh Health Project, IUBAT College of Nursing, and Nurses International, reflecting their dedication to advancing healthcare education.
