Launch of NBO Training Site in Poland

The Poland NBO Training Site was launched on June 19-20, 2021, with the first online training conducted by Karolina Isio-Kurpińska and Bożena Cieślak-Osik, mentored by Kevin Nugent and Joanna Hawthorne. Poland has been an NBAS Training Site since 2012 and in recent years, Fundacja Centrum NBAS w Polsce was established under their direction. Before the first NBO training, Karolina and Bozena used social media to the promote the event – “Giving babies voice and supporting families from the start”. They report that they both feel honored to be able to pass on the knowledge and skills to Polish practitioners and hope that the 2021 training will be just the first step on the road to making NBO a part of perinatal care system in Poland”.
