Connecting a global community of nurses
If you’re a nurse caring for people at the end of life — whether in a bustling city or a remote village — you’re not alone. The Global Palliative Nursing Network is here to connect you with a global community of nurses who want to learn, seek solution to challenges, and maintain their resilience to offer compassionate care.

Who we are

From the GPNN community
Since our launch in 2023, over 1000 nurses from 80 countries have joined the network — and it’s still growing! GPNN is already proving to be a vital force for professional development and support.
The aim of the GPNN is to establish a worldwide network to provide peer support and professional development for all nurses working in palliative care – wherever they are.
