Objectives:
Our paper puts forward the contention that diversity of ideas will be essential if nurse education is going to have the flexibility, innovation, and dynamism needed to meet current and future challenges.
Methods:
We describe a unique crucible of innovation that was forged through a weekly discussion of international nurse educators.
Results:
Our paper sets out the resulting outcomes, stimulating new connections, curriculum development, studies, and shared learning.
Conclusions:
We offer insights from participants' assessment of the group's effectiveness to drive innovation in nursing education. In so doing, we urge educators to reach out, to connect, and to use resulting opportunities to learn.
