This study addresses social responsibility in the discipline of nursing and implications for global health. The concept of social responsibility is explicated and its relevance for nursing is examined, grounded in the American Nurses Association Code of Ethics and the International Council of Nurses Code of Ethics. Social justice, human rights, nurse migration, and approaches to nursing education are discussed within the framework of nursing’s social responsibility. Strategies for addressing nursing workforce issues and education within a framework of social responsibility are explored.

Key Words: ethics • global health • human rights • nurse migration • nursing • social justice • social responsibility
