We are committed to supporting authors from all countries to publish their work in Annals of Global Health regardless of national income level, and to achieve this goal, we waive the Article Publication Charge for manuscripts where all authors are from low-income or lower-middle-income countries (as defined by the World Bank). From time to time, Annals of Global Health publishes Special Collections, a series of articles organized around a common theme in global health. Recent Special Collections have included “Strengthening Women’s Leadership in Global Health”, “Decolonizing Global Health Education”, and “Capacity Building for Global Health Leadership Training”. Global health workers interested in developing a Special Collection are strongly encouraged to contact the Managing Editor in advance to discuss the project.

Summary
As interest in the field of global health increases, curriculum and opportunities that prepare nurses to work in low resource settings are necessary. The program aims to (1) provide experience in global health for nursing fellows, and (2) to support educational opportunities for Haitian nurses in hospital settings. To achieve these goals, an experiential curriculum was implemented based on global health competencies defined by UCSF interprofessional faculty. Program: Using the principles of near-peer teaching, US students from the Icahn School of Medicine, accompanied by Emergency Medicine residents from Mount Sinai Hospital, taught Haitian medical students at Université Quisqueya (UniQ) Basic Life Support (BLS) skills and practical emergency management of common injuries
