Development and innovation of teaching methodologies to integrate transcultural competencies in (pre and post-registration) nursing education in order to increase the skills of the health care workforce. This project responds to the call by developing future-oriented curricula that better meets the needs of nursing students and nurses by developing content (transcultural nursing) and delivery methods (distance and digital learning) that support nursing students, faculty and practicing nurses in becoming more competent caregivers able to meet increasingly complex needs. This project encourages the development and implementation of digital higher education and mainstreams digitalization in the nursing curriculum. Through focusing on the most vulnerable and emphasizing the health care recipients’ values, beliefs, and customs and how someone’s way of life, their modes of thought, and their unique customs, this project helps to lay the foundations for strengthening active citizenship in nursing students and faculty in Albania and BiH. Finally, by focusing on transcultural communication in all areas of healthcare (primary and tertiary care, community nursing etc) this project is relevant to the call by developing education to build ‘soft skills’ for life and work.
