Closing Ceremony: Diploma Course “Systematization of Experiences in Health Institutions”: Joint Activity Colombia and Honduras.

On March 25, 2025, the closing ceremony of the diploma course “Systematization of Experiences in Health Institutions”: 2024 cohort, a joint activity between Colombia and Honduras was successfully held. This event formally concluded the diploma course organized by the Universidad del Valle, Cali, Colombia, in cooperation with the institutions participating in the project The Global Health Network Latin America and the Caribbean (TGHN LAC), Hospital Escuela, and Instituto Antonio Vidal, Honduras.

This diploma course, developed between September 2024 and March 2025, aimed to strengthen health research capacities through the methodology of experience systematization. It was designed for nurses from various health institutions and training and research centers in Colombia and Honduras, through the development of five modules:

  • Module 1: Planning of experience systematization
  • Module 2: Protocol development and submission to the ethics committee
  • Module 3: Protocol implementation and results analysis
  • Module 4: Communication and engagement
  • Module 5: Evaluation

The course was delivered in a virtual format, combining independent work during asynchronous sessions with facilitator-guided feedback and supervision during synchronous sessions. Topics explored by participants included competency-based education, accreditation processes in maternal and child health strategies, nursing care, and the autonomy and leadership of nursing professionals.

During the closing event, participants presented the development, implementation, and results of their systematization projects, highlighting achievements, challenges, lessons learned, and recommendations. The event concluded with the presentation of recognitions to participants for their effort and commitment to strengthening health institutions.

This activity was held in a hybrid format, at the Auditorium of the School of Nursing, Universidad del Valle (San Fernando campus), and was also broadcast via the Univalle Zoom Platform. It included participants from both Honduras and Colombia, including the academic community, researchers, and representatives from health institutions.

This successful first edition marks the beginning of a promising future, with plans for a second edition already underway. The course materials will soon be available in the TGHN LAC training center to extend its impact to the global community.

Work Meeting: Strengthening Nursing Research Projects at Hospital Escuela

On January 16, 2025, a meeting was held in the Boardroom of the Department of Pathology, located on the second floor of the Medical-Surgical Block at Hospital Escuela. The meeting was convened by the Department of Academic Management and Research to introduce the Mentorship Program for research projects developed by the nursing staff who are members of the Research Club.

Mentorship is a practice in which a more experienced individual guides and advises a less experienced one over a defined period. This relationship seeks to strengthen the research capabilities of health professionals, supporting their professional development and contributing to the generation of knowledge in the health field (https://lac.tghn.org/actividades-y-eventos/mentoria-es/programa-de-mentoria-en-investigacion-en-el-hospital-escuela/).

During the meeting, future activities were scheduled to follow up on research projects through the assignment of tasks and deadlines for their execution.

The meeting concluded with the presentation of participation certificates for the training and theoretical-practical strengthening activities held by the Nursing Research Club at Hospital Escuela, covering the period from February to November 2024. Certificates were awarded to nurses working in Gynecology-Obstetrics, Internal Medicine, Surgery, Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, and Surgical Centers.
