Follow up after the Estonian example (very small and low
profile training):
•
Maybe other EPSO members are interested to follow the
Estonian example of good practice and are willing to
support a training to reduce restraint and coercive methods
in their country ??
•
Maybe other members of EPSO working group with their
additional experience in this field could be involved in a
follow up training??
