Abstract
The International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) is defined as a classification of nursing phenomena, nursing actions, and nursing outcomes that describes nursing practice (ICN, 2001). Although the International Classification for Nursing Practice (ICNP®) has been a project of the International Council of Nurses (ICN) since 1990, it was only in 2000 that a formal ICNP® Programme was established. The vision of the ICNP® Programme is to have nursing data readily available and used in health care information systems worldwide. To achieve this vision, the Programme objectives and activities were organized around three clusters: (a) communication and dissemination, (b) research and development, and (c) coordination and programme management. Examples of programme activities are described, as well as the need for ongoing organizational support and strategic planning to advance the ICNP® and meet the vision of the ICNP® Programme.
