Madeleine M Leininger, PhD LHD DS CTN FRCNA FAAN Founder of Transcultural Nursing

This second edition of Advances in Contemporary Transcultural Nursing: Pathways of Cultural Awareness builds upon the first edition (Volume 15/3, October 2003) and extends the focus on contemporary transcultural nursing practices, research and education to provide culturally congruent care. This is the central purpose and goal of transcultural nursing.

Leader and founder of the discipline, Madeleine Leininger, introduces the contents which report on evidence based research, leadership and the application of Transcultural Nursing principles to inform, improve and advance culture care practices in diverse nursing and health care practice settings. The issue builds upon existing knowledge for academics, clinicians, researchers and nurse leaders in a true journey of cultural awareness.

This Special Issue features research articles, editorials and commentaries, providing and demonstrating the undivided commitment of transcultural nurse generalists to ongoing research and development of this important topic. Nursing educators, leaders and students will benefit from the focus of this issue as a further basis for exploring Transcultural Nursing into the future. Advances in Contemporary Transcultural Nursing is widely used as a discounted set of readings for tertiary courses on society, culture and health, and professional development courses to raise cultural competence.
