Introducing LINKS Magazine Volume 18

The Global Network of WHO Collaborating Centres for Nursing and Midwifery are delighted to announce the latest edition of LINKS Magazine.  This edition is a culmination of collaborative efforts, offering a wealth of valuable insights and inspiration for all our valued Collaborating Centres and Partners. This issue reflects the strength of our community, featuring insightful contributions from our esteemed global partners and colleagues. The Global Network’s mission remains focused on utilising the full potential of nursing and midwifery to promote health for all. We work hand-in-hand with WHO Member States, Collaborating Centres, NGOs, and other stakeholders to advance population health. Together, we continue to advocate and influence evidence-based policies, aligning with regional resolutions and WHO Programs of work, and within the framework of the WHO Strategic Directions for Nursing and Midwifery (2021-2025) Policy Priorities: Education, Jobs, Leadership, and Service Delivery. 

In this edition, we are proud to share tools and crucial insights for working in fragile, conflict-affected, and vulnerable (FCV) settings. These environments present unique challenges to delivering quality healthcare, and our featured content explores strategies and practices to support health workers and strengthen systems in these contexts. This information is critical for advancing our collective capacity to provide equitable care, particularly to those most at risk.

In addition, we are excited to highlight innovative educational advancements, practices, and initiatives that strive to deliver equitable healthcare to vulnerable populations. These efforts are significant steps toward achieving our collective goals and fulfilling our strategic priorities.

A special focus is given to the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMRO) in this issue, celebrating the remarkable contributions of the WHO Collaborating Centres for Nursing and Midwifery in the region. We are confident that this edition will provide valuable insights, inspiration, and practical information to our Collaborating Centres and partners worldwide.
