Global citizens, healthy communities : Integrating the sustainable development goals into the nursing curriculum

Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

BACKGROUND: Integrating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into the nursing curriculum is an ethical response and facilitator developing students into global citizens. Nurse educators can promote global citizenship through the concept of "glocal" experiences in local communities as students work in partnership with communities to address social determinants of health and begin to achieve SDG targets.

PURPOSE: This paper explores the process of integrating the SDGs into the nursing curriculum emphasizing the strategic vision of international agencies and national nursing organizations.

DISCUSSION: Distinct pedagogical and clinical approaches for implementing SDG content into the curriculum are provided including an exploration of global health competencies and their relationship to the SDGs. Finally, an academic-community partnership is described as a clinical exemplar to strengthen the health of communities and begin realizing the SDGs at a local level.
