“…Despite the diversity and different types and structures of nursing doctoral programs [ 3 ], workers with a doctoral degree are expected to serve as leaders in the most different spheres of practice, having in mind the interdependence of social determinants of health and global health conditions [ 10 – 17 ]. In this sense, PhD nurses would be more prepared to strengthen policies and strategies to collaborate with the movement to protect planetary health.…”

Background Different social segments from several regions of the world face challenges in order to achieve the sustainable development goals (SDGs). Nursing represents the greatest number of health workforce in the globe, dealing with these challenges in different paths, among them the training of human resources. In this context, the goal of this study was to compare the relationship between the objectives and research areas underlying nursing doctoral programs in Latin America and the SDGs. Method Documental research comparing data of all Latin American nursing doctoral programs and the SDGs, conducted between January and March 2020. Results From the total of 56 existing programs in Latin America, this study analyzed 52 of them, representing 92.8% of the total. Most nursing doctoral programs have contributed to SDG 3, in addition to goals 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12 and 16. The SDGs 11, 13, 14, 15 and 17 were not related to any of the analyzed programs. Data reveal that the training of nursing PhDs is essential to fulfilling these goals. Results also indicate a need of programs to remain committed to relationships that enhance nursing skills to cope with the current challenges in terms of global health, such as investments for the reduction of social and gender inequities. Conclusion The doctoral training of nurses in Latin America needs to be better aligned with the sustainable development goals (SDGs), since there is a high concentration in SDG 3. We believe that nursing will bring a greater contribution to the movement to protect planetary health as the principles governing nursing practices are better aligned with international health demands and agendas.

Trata-se de um estudo reflexivo realizado com a análise de documentos brasileiros e canadenses, com o objetivo de refletir sobre os principais pontos de congruência e divergência entre o papel de enfermeiros brasileiros e canadenses nos cuidados primários à saúde. Foram evidenciados os principais pontos de convergência entre as práticas do enfermeiro brasileiro e do canadense: a assistência universal à saúde, a imunização como estratégia de prevenção, o foco da atenção primária na prevenção e na promoção de saúde, e a influência do modelo biomédico arraigado à prática. As divergências identificadas foram: a autonomia do enfermeiro na assistência, a existência de agentes comunitários de saúde, a formação acadêmica da enfermagem e o trabalho em equipe.

Objective: to understand from the complex perspective the connections established between the Strategic Directions for Strengthening Nursing and Midwifery, delimited by the World Health Organization; to discuss the implications of these strategies for the investment of human resources in nursing and midwifery, with a view to strengthening the technical health capacity to face global health demands. Method: a documentary research, carried out from official WHO documents, from September to October 2019. A categorical analysis technique was performed, and the interpretation of the data was achieved based on the theoretical framework of Complexity. Results: three interdependent categories were defined, namely: challenges for the training of human resources in nursing and midwifery in order to meet the needs for global health; challenges for the development of the work of nursing and midwifery professionals in different contexts of practice; challenges for governments, leaders and health services to strengthen human resources in nursing and midwifery. Conclusion: the strategic directions corroborate the complex perspective because they value multidimensionality in the challenges for the professional practice of nurses and obstetricians. However, these challenges are also related to contextual, political, and leadership factors.
