In cooperation with the Ministry of Health and Palestine Association of Nurses, NORWAC has started a pilot project for specialisation of nurses in Gaza. The objective of the project is to form the base for a long-term, sustainable specialisation programme. The training will be a six month intensive programme which aims to graduate 45 nurses within emergency and critical care for children and adults, as well as peri-operative care. The programme focuses on clinical skills, but will also include theoretical teaching. The candidates are requited from the public hospitals in Gaza and it is prioritised to have a gender balance among the candidates. The aim is also to have Norwegian specialist to contribute to parts of the programme.
