title: Leading an international nursing partnership: the Vietnam Nurse Project.
abstract: This article describes an international partnership between a US university in San Francisco, California, and a nursing school in Hanoi, Vietnam. The focus of the project is nursing education and practice. All successful partnerships require a great deal of trust, care, nurturing, and determination. However, regardless of the resources available, the first order of business must be to build trust and confidence between the players.
