Global Health Bioethics
The aim of this initiative is to provide resources to enable people conducting global health bioethics research in both developing and developed countries to communicate about issues in global health research ethics, share models of good research practice, collaborate on developing research ideas or applying for research grants, get constructive feedback on bioethics-related PhD proposals, and have ready access to a wide range of resources on research ethics. It is our hope that these resources will encourage local research initiatives, improve ethical standards in collaborative global health research, and contribute to the development and sharing of research ethics capacity.

Investing in Nursing Education to Advance Global Health
Summary
Expanding nursing education programs at all levels is essential to ensuring access to quality health care for the world’s population. The easing of the nursing shortage in some nations is a direct result of the global financial crisis and should not be used as justification to cut funding for entry-level and advanced programs that prepare professional nurses. Given the aging of the population and a large wave of retirements projected for the nursing workforce, action must be taken now to ensure that an adequate supply of nurses is available to avert a global crisis in the future. As leaders in the nursing community, GANES is calling on all colleague organizations to alert their policymakers and stakeholders to the need for robust and stable funding for nursing education as an effective mechanism for advancing global health.

Is Transition of Internationally Educated Nurses a Regulatory Issue?
Abstract
Based on a review of initial evidence, this article suggests that transition of internationally educated nurses (IENs) is a regulatory issue. Given the absence of global nurse regulation, the questionable credibility in many areas where national regulation does operate, and more important, the commercialization of nurse training in some countries to meet international demand, the quality and competence of IENs are likely to be varied in both quantitative and qualitative terms. This variability in quality and competence affect their ability and readiness to practice with direct implications for patient safety and quality of care. After description of a transition program as a proposed regulatory mechanism modeled after the National Council of State Boards of Nursing’s Transition Initiatives, this article calls for comparative outcomes research on IENs and U.S. educated nurses to definitively determine if transition of IENs is a regulatory issue.

The health effects of climate change: What does a nurse need to know?
Article abstract:
The scienti?c evidence for anthropogenic climate change has been established with increasing precision andthere are widespread concerns about its potential to undermine the public health gains of the past century.There is also a growing consensus across private and public sector organisations at national and internationallevel that carbon reduction should be a policy aim. Various international nursing organisations have madestrong position statements on the issue, arguing that nurses should be actively engaged as part of theirroles in both health promotion and clinical practice. We point to education for sustainability initiatives inother health professions and share resources for curriculum development in nursing. The nurses of tomorrowwill make a unique and signi?cant contribution to protecting population health in an unstable climate, if today's nursing educators can help prepare them for this role
