The EPNS has been delighted to offer THREE 1-hour webinars on Advocacy Training, with a special focus on the field of Child Neurology. Each webinar was broadcast live on Zoom and available for free to everyone who attended, with certificates of attendance issued to anybody who attended the full live broadcast.
Don’t worry if you missed the live broadcasts, because fully paid up EPNS members can access recordings of the full sessions via the EPNS Moodle.
The webinars provide insights and practical skills to enhance advocating for the implementation of IGAP at a local and national level. We will look at raising awareness about brain health in child neurology, together with coordinating with relevant stakeholders: patient organisations, politicians, administrators.
Whether you’re new to advocacy or looking to refine your skills, this series offers practical, actionable advice and training.
