Environmental physiotherapy around the world
26 May 2025
The EPT Agenda 2027 continues to grow and advance its efforts to implement planetary health, environmental and sustainability education in physiotherapy programs everywhere around the world. There are now over 100 participating institutions and more than 40 supporting organisations backing this initiative. In this public meeting and seminar, educators from twelve different participating institutions will offer short presentations on their work to date, followed by time for questions, answers, and discussion.
Taking place in three 60-minute sessions, the meeting and seminar is spread throughout the day to enable everyone to attend at least one session in their respective timezone. Of course, everyone is welcome to join as many sessions as they like
