Welcome to WNEP 2026 in Lisbon – Advancing Global Nursing Through Education & Practice

Dear Esteemed Guests, Speakers, and Participants,

It is with great enthusiasm that we welcome you to the World Nursing Education and Practice Congress (WNEP 2026), taking place on 21–22 September 2026 in the historic and captivating city of Lisbon, Portugal.

This year's theme, "Advancing Global Nursing Through Education and Excellence in Practice," reflects our shared mission to elevate the nursing profession through innovative education, collaborative research, and evidence-based clinical excellence. As we gather in Lisbon—a city known for its vibrant culture, timeless beauty, and progressive spirit—we are reminded of the importance of global unity and knowledge exchange in transforming health outcomes worldwide.

WNEP 2026 brings together educators, practitioners, policymakers, and researchers from across the globe to share best practices, spotlight emerging trends, and address the evolving challenges in nursing. Through keynote sessions, expert panels, interactive workshops, and networking opportunities, we aim to foster a rich dialogue that bridges disciplines and geographies.

This congress is more than a meeting—it is a platform for inspiration, a space for innovation, and a call to action. It is an opportunity to strengthen our collective commitment to improving patient care, advancing nursing education, and building a resilient, well-prepared nursing workforce for the future.

We are honored by your participation and look forward to the connections, insights, and collaborations that will emerge over these two exciting days.

We anticipate participation from over 100 attendees from around the globe at this edition of the conference.

Welcome to WNEP 2026. Welcome to Lisbon. Let us advance nursing together.
