EdAge

Five higher-education institutions from Norway, Belgium, Iceland, the Netherlands, and Portugal follow a co-creative approach. The questions in this project are:

• What challenges and opportunities exist in the 5 different EU countries in education on physiotherapy for older people?

• Which elements are essential for the development and implementation of a curriculum toolbox with flexible learning modules?

• How can we raise awareness of the importance of physiotherapy for older adults among both students and professionals in the 5 participating EU countries?

The goal of this project is to inspire and motivate physiotherapy students and practicing physiotherapists to work with older people.

The project will contribute to training well-qualified healthcare personnel who are ready to support Europe’s ageing population — while promoting inclusivity and respect for older adults.
