🎙️ ETNAtalks – Episode 9 is live
Compassion and Dignity: The Heart of Transcultural Nursing
In this powerful episode, we’re joined by Dr Katalin Papp — nurse educator, mentor, and founding member of the European Transcultural Nursing Association (ETNA), and Fellow of ETNA.
From helping establish ETNA in 2005 to embedding transcultural nursing into university curricula in Hungary, Dr Papp reflects on the two principles that underpin truly culturally competent care:
Compassion. Dignity.
We explore:
- How to teach cultural sensitivity beyond “dry theory”
- Why storytelling and role-play matter in nursing education
- What students teach us about difference
- How to build empathy while safeguarding against burnout
Let them feel from a handshake that you want good — and that you are for good too".
Dr Katalin Papp
If you’re passionate about nursing education, leadership, or shaping more culturally intelligent health systems, this is a conversation not to miss.
