Promoting Health in Haiti Program and SUNY Downstate Health Sciences University College of Nursing in partnership with the State University of Haiti are collaborating on research and scholarship initiatives for nursing students. These initiatives are supported by three overarching principles:
- Each university values research and the need for sharing knowledge, data and findings as a result of this collaboration.
- Each university values participation in joint research and higher education partnerships and building the capacity of health professions and systems in service to Haiti.
- Each university supports nursing students with a strong commitment of providing service to the Haitian people and their institutions, schools and hospitals.
