Nurses play a crucial role in addressing human health influenced by global forces such as pandemics, and political conflicts that displace millions; in leading efforts to promote planetary health; and in achieving the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Agenda. Academic nursing programs have a significant role in actualizing nursing's impact on global health (GH) and planetary health (PH). This paper describes how nursing programs can actualize their GH and PH nursing perspectives to benefit students and society, thereby increasing nursing's effectiveness and improving health outcomes in local and global settings. Numerous strategies to actualize GH and PH perspectives were derived from current literature and an assessment of eleven nursing program websites. Nursing programs may adopt program-wide strategies such as reflecting GH and PH in their mission statement; through education, in courses; and through faculty or student scholarship, policy endeavors, and/or partnerships. Now is the time to take such action, recommitting to GH and PH nursing and deepening nursing's impact. Academic nursing programs' leadership role in society, and their role in preparing nurses to lead, educate, discover, and advocate is essential for the health of populations and the planet long into the future.
