Mona teaches for making an impact, inspiring nursing students to engage in critical professional inquiry and evidence-informed practice and to view the world through the lens of humanity, equity and equality. The key ingredients of her teaching philosophy are motivating students to reach their full potential, situate learning in their lives and assess their growth and confidence, aiming to shape their professional and global citizenship identities. In recent years, Mona’s research program has been influenced by her specialization in public and global health with a concentration on sustainability, integrated innovation and health equity. She is a guru of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs that are most important to her: SDG2 (zero hunger), SDG3 (good health and wellbeing), SDG5 (gender equality), SDG12 (responsible consumption and production), SDG13 (climate action), and SDG17 (partnerships for the goals). Upon her graduation from the Global Nursing Leadership Institute (GNLI) training, titled nursing opportunities in a world focused on sustainable development (2016), Mona has committed to contribute to achieving the SDGs through community-engaged learning, partnerships, innovation and advocacy—frameworks and innovative approaches—that she has integrated into teaching a senior nursing elective course: Fostering Resilience in Priority Populations, and partnering with local and national community organizations. She is now working on expanding the horizons of this commitment with other entities within and outside our university, all of which are part of her teaching and research plans. | Public and global health, health in all policies, sustainability, sustainable development goals, integrated innovation, human-centered design, health equity, community-engaged learning
