The first event of Keele World Festival took place on Tuesday this week, at the School of Nursing and Midwifery, Clinical Education Centre.

Rama Thirunamachandran, Deputy Vice Chancellor and Provost presented on Internationalisation at Keele and Dr Annette Kratz Head of Keele International reflected on the work of Keele International. Over 60 students and staff were welcomed by Pauline Walsh, Head of School.

There were a wide range of stimulating presentations by student nurses, academic, administrative and clinical staff. Their recent global health care experiences were in a wide range of countries including Afghanistan, Ghana, Iceland and Sweden.

The afternoon was chaired by Dr Wynne Thomas School International Champion. Its aim is to help staff and students be more internationally aware of global trends in health care, the cultural differences, and the differences and similarities in health care delivery from a global perspective.

This is now an annual event at the School.
