Description: Funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Community-Based International Learning Programs between the Beijing Medical University (BMU) Department of Nursing and the University of Michigan (UM) School of Nursing was initiated in 1996. The University of Michigan School of Nursing (UMSN) signed a Partnership Agreement with the Beijing Medical University School of Nursing (BMUSN). The project has the following objectives: (1) to provide information and materials to enhance nursing education about the most effective community-based care that is relevant to the Chinese situation; and (2) to build long-term faculty relationships that contribute to ongoing use of the most up-to-date, culturally relevant knowledge in effective health care. The UMSN has hosted six visiting scholars from the BMUSN since 1996.
