NMT’s webinar series continued with a live event featuring Purnima Tanuku, chief executive of NDNA.
Purnima discussed the lobbying efforts of the NDNA and its main priorities during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as current Government policies, navigating through the regulations and where it has been falling short for early years providers.
