Applications for the Global Rural Nursing Virtual Collaboration Learning Grant Program 2022-2023 are now open. The MHCH Foundation’s Global Rural Nursing Virtual Collaboration Learning Grant (GRNVCLG) provides funding to programs that promote collaboration, learning, and global connections.
The grant opportunity is designed to foster partnerships between international nursing students and educators who collaborate on rural community health projects. Universities, or other institutions involved in nurse education, must partner with an international university, or other institution, to co-apply for this grant opportunity. These international collaborations will foster global connections and deeper research as the groups of nursing students and nurse educator(s) individually launch rural/remote healthcare community projects in their respective countries.
