1 Press release 6 th July 2016 For immediate release Australian physical therapists to address WCPT Congress 2017 Physical therapists from Australia will be among the main speakers at the profession s largest and most important international gathering, the WCPT Congress 2017, to be held next year in Cape Town on 2 nd 4 th July. The Australian physical therapists taking part are profiled in the attached sheets. They will be contributing to focused symposia featuring prominent international speakers from across WCPT s five regions. Focused symposia are core congress sessions providing a forum where cutting edge research and practice perspectives can be explored and debated on issues of global relevance to the profession. We ve been able to select some very high quality speakers, covering topics of vital importance for the profession across a wide variety of practice and research areas, said Dina Brooks, of WCPT s International Scientific Committee, which has responsibility for putting together the programme for the WCPT Congress. We re also delighted that we have such a good geographical representation in our speakers. So we can honestly say that the focused symposia will have something for everyone wherever they work, and whether their interest is clinical practice, research or education. Focused symposia are a very popular feature of our congresses, drawing large audiences. They provide the opportunity not just to hear from world authorities, but to engage with them in discussion. Each focused symposium is organised by a convenor, who leads an international group of speakers through linked research-focused presentations. The symposium ends with key takehome messages for practice, research, education, management and policy. About the WCPT Congress The WCPT Congress is held every two years by the World Confederation for Physical Therapy. The last congress, held in Singapore in 2015, attracted 3,500 physical therapists from 114 countries. Further details about the symposia and the programme for WCPT Congress 2017 can be found at:
