    Author: Hendel T, Wagner N.
    Journal: J Nurs Staff Dev; 1996; 12(1):35-9. PubMed ID: 8699275.
    Abstract:
    International cooperation in nursing enables nurses to share, exchange, and develop knowledge and experience, increase tolerance and sensitivity, expand horizons, make new friends, and contribute to the advancement of professionalism. International cooperation exists in many fields and is carried out through governments, international organizations, public and academic institutions, and professional associations. The authors were sent by the Center for International Cooperation of Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs to teach a course entitled "The Nurse Educator Role: Aspects in Nursing Education and Management." The learners were senior nurses in Kenyatta National Hospital, Nairobi, Kenya. The course was designed to meet two main objectives: (1) to emphasize the educational role as an essential dimension of the professional nursing practice, and (2) to expand the knowledge base and skills to enable participants to improve their function as educators.
