International Nurses Day is celebrated around the world every May 12, the anniversary of the nursing pioneer Florence Nightingale’s birth. The theme for 2020, Nurses: A Voice to Lead – Nursing the World to Health, demonstrates how nurses are central to addressing a wide range of health challenges. This particularly rings true during the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Over the years, 13 students from the UW School of Nursing’s Doctor of Nurse Practitioner Program (DNP) and PhD in Nursing Science Program have participated in the Global WACh Graduate Certificate Program. Today, we celebrate our students and all nurses for all that they do to provide the care and attention people need, whenever and wherever they need it.
