The ProInCa project (Promoting the Innovation Capacity of Higher Education in Nursing during Health Services’ Transition), coordinated by JAMK University of Applied Sciences, was granted an Erasmus funding of nearly one million euros to develop the higher education and research in nursing in Kazakhstan.
In Kazakhstan, the co-operation between researchers and working-life interest groups in transforming the health service system requires further development. The three-year-long project involves creating permanent mechanisms to support the dialogue between these parties and to share evidence-based nursing practices. The aim is to strengthen the position of higher education and to develop nursing education to meet the needs of today’s working life.
