Our Story

Our mission is to connect nurses, students, and educators who share a passion for improving the health of rural communities and an appreciate for the role nurses play in serving these communities.

Our Vision

Rural and remote nurses around the globe are better equipped to
improve the status of health and well-being in their communities.

Guiding Principals

GRNEN is guided by our belief in the following principals.

  • Technology is an effective, cost-efficient way to reimagine
    global exchanges, collaboration, and learning so it is easily accessible and useful for a larger audience.

  • Exposing students to rural and remote nursing opportunities
    early in their education is key to the future.

  • Multiple perspectives allow us to build strength from differences
    and benefit from better decision-making.

  • We are committed to opportunities that inspire students to
    become both global citizens and healthcare providers.

  • Leveraging the collective expertise and experience of our network
    will improve the care rural and remote nurses provide to their communities.

  • Every country has important lessons and knowledge to share regardless of economic or development status. Reverse innovation
    is just as valuable as innovation.
