Abstract
Background: International research collaboration in nursing is essential for exchanging knowledge and experiences that can provide the basis for new and important perspectives on existing practices. However, little is known about the experiences on the content and organisation of such collaboration. Purpose: The purpose of this essay is to use examples from an international research collaboration in nursing between two institutions in Australia and Denmark to highlight the content of the actual collaboration and discuss the facilitators and barriers in relation to the collaboration. Methods: Selected components of Global Capacity Building were used to present and discuss experiences and examples from international research collaboration in nursing between two institutions in Australia and Denmark. Findings: Strong relationships, shared understanding of agreed principles, and common areas of research were established in order to strengthen the collaboration. With a solid strategy for collaboration, direction and dedication, strong leadership, respectful communication, and perseverance, it is possible to build strong international partnerships in nursing research.
