Welcome to the European Region of the World Confederation of Physiotherapy

Info Tool for Physiotherapy Associations

Dear colleague

The European Region of the World Confederation for Physical Therapy (ER-WCPT) is the single representative organisation and the voice of the physiotherapy profession in Europe.

At this time 37 national organisations are members of the ER-WCPT and we all together work on the following areas:

1. Education Matters

2. Professional Issues

3. EU Matters

Most of our work is published and available on our website which could be really useful to you and your organisation.
