Welcoming address

Esther-Mary D'Arcy, Chairperson European Region World Physiotherapy:

“I am really excited about this transnational Symposium on 8^th and 9^th of September. What better way to celebrate World Physiotherapy Day than to have three countries coming together to present their research and good practice. This symposium offers physiotherapists a super opportunity hear the best from not one, not two, but three countries. I am excited for a number of reasons - this will be my first experience of bar camps, so I am looking forward to participating in this format. By coming together, the three Member Organisations are not only collaborating, but sharing resources and acting in an environmentally friendly way. Lastly – the city looks beautiful, situated on the lake and close to Slovenia and Italy. I am Looking forward to seeing many colleagues from across Europe in Klagenfurt.”
