City, University of London, Northampton Square
This will be an international research conference where we discuss the evidence that informs community nursing policy, education and practice in relation to all specialities in community health nursing across health care systems and populations. How can we most effectively use research to influence the pillars of the Sustainable Development Goals?

The purpose of the scholarship is to enable networking and dissemination of evidence between community nurses across LMICs to empower nurses towards improvement in practice and health outcomes for their communities.
