We hope that this conference will be an excellent opportunity for nursing academics, researchers, practitioners and students from China and abroad to learn and to share from each other. We are calling for papers that are focus on the above mentioned four nursing areas.

We also hope that the conference will provide an opportunity for nursing institutions to meet up with the Chinese nurses who are interested in working abroad, and that Chinese nursing staff may use this opportunity to look for options for their own career development, in further nursing education and/or practice.
