Area of Science:

Nursing
Higher Education
Knowledge Management

Background:

An international environmental scan was conducted to inform the creation of a Nursing Knowledge Network.
The scan assessed organizational contexts, research areas, resources, benefits, innovations, barriers, and prospective contributions.

Purpose of the Study:

To gather baseline information from universities worldwide for establishing a Nursing Knowledge Network.
To identify potential areas for research and collaboration within the nursing field.

Main Methods:

An online environmental scan of 63 universities across 13 countries was performed between February and October 2021.
Data was collected from 42 nursing faculty members (70% participation rate) via questionnaires.

Main Results:

Nursing faculty demonstrated a strong commitment to global co-creation, innovation, and research partnerships.
Key areas for the Network include addressing seldom-researched topics to inform local scientific practices.
Collaboration, cooperation, and knowledge exchange are vital for nursing higher education institutions.

Conclusions:

The gathered information will guide policy and program reviews for nursing evidence dissemination.
The Nursing Knowledge Network has the potential to foster global research collaboration and enhance nursing practice.
Focusing on under-researched areas can generate crucial evidence for local and global nursing contexts.
