This study was guided by Walker and Avant's concept analysis approach. The eight-step approach identified the attributes, antecedents, and consequences of equity, diversity, and inclusion within the context of nursing educational institutions. Twenty articles published between 2015 and 2025 were selected and analyzed from a search of five databases (MEDLINE, CINAHL, ERIC, Education Research Complete, and Scopus). Our analysis shows that EDI is embedded in NEIs through compassion, techniques, and pedagogical approaches. Critical steps, such as strategy and clearly defined methods, come before it. Well-structured EDI plans and procedures have a positive impact on both individuals and organizations within NEIs. Seven key elements will advance equity, diversity, and inclusion in nursing educational institutions, clearly defining the construct within the context of nursing education. In nursing educational institutions, equity, diversity, and inclusion are still in the early stages of understanding and application, with no universally accepted definition yet. Clearly defining and understanding the key elements of equity, diversity, and inclusion can help improve their implementation in this context. • Equity, diversity, and inclusion are vital concepts for advancing health equity among minority groups. Nursing educational institutions acknowledge the importance of integrating these principles into their policies, practices, and curricula. • However, there is no universally accepted definition of these concepts within this context. • A structured analysis of equity, diversity, and inclusion as a construct within the nursing educational institution identified key elements for progress and a context-specific definition. • The analysis results enhance the understanding of equity, diversity, and inclusion within nursing educational institutions. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
