World Physiotherapy South America region conference

Science that drives, technology that transforms, and physiotherapy that connects.

This is not just another congress. After several years, we are returning to the region for an in-person congress.

That is precisely why we are delighted to welcome you to the VII World Physiotherapy South America region conference and the VII Uruguayan Physiotherapy Congress.

It will be the meeting point where Uruguay opens its doors to colleagues from the region and, of course, we hope to have a significant presence of national colleagues.

During these days, all physiotherapists, teachers, researchers and authorities will experience a time of opportunities: exchange of knowledge, scientific updates, learning that transforms research into innovation, improving practice, generating connections, from management and policies, that strengthen our profession and its contribution to health and wellbeing.

Physiotherapy is on the move, moving from function... to action.

It will be a unique space to share clinical experiences, innovations and challenges, where every voice counts and every encounter adds value.

A stage to show the region, the population, the health team and the authorities the magnitude, value and necessity of the physiotherapy degree in inter- and transdisciplinary healthcare.

Here, knowledge is amplified, ideas become projects, and connections are transformed into solid networks that transcend borders.

And because culture is also part of our identity, tango will be our special guest—a living heritage of the Río de la Plata—reminding us that movement is not only technical, but also emotion, history, and connection.

We invite you to be an active part of this meeting: contributing, learning, enjoying and, together, propelling physiotherapy towards new horizons.

We welcome you to Uruguay and look forward to seeing you here to enjoy our country.
