Funding models often fail to support rehabilitation ad equately\, despite its essential role in universal health coverage\, healt hy aging\, and equitable care. The WHO’s resolution on Strengthening Rehab ilitation in Health Systems\, the Rehabilitation 2030 initiative\, and the World Rehabilitation Alliance (WRA) signal a global shift toward addressi ng this urgent gap.\n\nDr. Côté will examine how health services and polic y research can shape responsive policies\, drawing on the work of the WHO Collaborating Centre on Rehabilitation and Musculoskeletal Health. He will also highlight why generating robust data on the value of rehabilitation\ , its impact on population health\, work productivity\, and quality of lif e for aging adults is critical to support governments in making informed i nvestments in integrated\, sustainable rehabilitation services.\n\nPlease join us\, Wednesday October 29th\, from 12-1pm either in person or online. \n\nMcIntyre Building\, Room 208\n 3655 Promenade Sir-William-Osler\n\nWe e ncourage you to share this invitation with your networks!\n\nRegister Here \n\nKindly note the seminar will be presented in English.\n\n \n DTSTART:20251029T160000Z DTEND:20251029T170000Z LOCATION:McIntyre Medical Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3G 1Y6\, 3655 pr omenade Sir William Osler SUMMARY:Why the Future of Health Depends on Rehabilitation URL:/spot/channels/event/why-future-health-depends-reh abilitation-367925 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
