Highlight the rehabilitation definition of WHO, as a set of interventions designed to optimise functioning and reduce disability in individuals, in interaction with their environment, where rehabilitation is an investment in human capital that contributes to health, economic and social development to create enabling environments. (see REHABILITATION 2030)

Communicate to professionals, academics, researchers, students and services the Rehabilitation Competency Framework of WHO, with the most recent scientific evidence.

Highlight the fact that disability is a human rights issue and communicate it at a local and international level, by raising awareness about people with disabilities and their struggle for equal rights.
The Scientific and Organising Committees of the conference invite citizens with disabilities, service providers, funding bodies, professional organisations, research organisations, academic institutions, non-governmental and governmental organisations, as well as national and international organisations to actively participate in the 3rd International Rehabilitation Conference.The International Rehabilitation Conference invites interdisciplinary papers and round tables on current rehabilitation themes. Researchers, scientists, scholars and students in the Fields of Health and Human Sciences gather, in order to disseminate original research results, new ideas, research and development, practical experiments, which concentrate on both theory and practice.
