| Research Abstract |
[Background] International activities among Japanese nurses have not been systematically analyzed despite the increased demand for global views in nursing society in Japan. [Purpose] To capture the characteristics of overseas experiences among Japanese nurses based on the world trend in international nurse migration and Japan's position in that trend [Methods] Systematic review of English articles on international nurse migration and a cross-sectional to Japanese nurses [Result and achievement] Nurses in the world are migrating mainly from developing to developed countries by the needs for supply and demand on nursing workforce. Only 10% of Japanese nurses who were surveyed had past overseas experiences (except for holidays and sightseeing), and more nurses will go overseas if they attain advanced academic degree, better English proficiency and higher specialization in nursing. Career development of nurses who want to go abroad and efficient use of nurses who have foreign experiences should be explored.
