Welcome to WENR

The purpose of the WENR website is to help promote and strengthen the value of collaborative nursing research in Europe for the benefit of the people of Europe. In so doing WENR intends to enhance collaboration and solidarity among nurse researchers across Europe.

WENR´s objectives are:
