Advancing Underrepresented Voices in Neonatal Care

This video was originally a live webinar from February of 2026. 

This video explores how informal systems of recognition are equivalent to or higher qualifications. Drawing on evidence from peer‑reviewed literature, the presentation examines patterns of unequal recognition and their impact on leadership development, faculty representation, and career pathways in neonatal nursing. The session incorporates real professional examples, guided reflection, and takeaway strategies to deepen awareness and promote change at both individual and organizational levels.
