Abstract

Background

Challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and social injustice complicated the nursing workforce, nursing education, and personal life inequities faced by Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Nursing students from historically marginalized and minoritized communities (MMC). This article describes the process of forming a PhD in Nursing Student-Led Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Advisory Council to address these inequities.

Methods

The authors provide a blueprint for developing a similar group through supporting research and experiences.

Results

The group developed and worked towards their mission to “strengthen diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice in nursing science and research through scholarship, community-building and advocacy.”

Conclusion

A student-led DEI advisory group is a great way to establish a community for nursing students at a high risk for isolation and stress and improve retention of students, especially those from MMC.
