Beyond their academic presentations, the delegation engaged in high-level international discussions, further strengthening the faculty’s global network and fostering future collaborative partnerships in the field of rehabilitation and special education.
The EACD (European Academy of Childhood Disability) conference is one of the world’s most prestigious multidisciplinary scientific events dedicated to childhood-onset disabilities. It serves as a vital global platform that brings together researchers, clinicians, therapists, and educators to share cutting-edge research and innovative therapies. Its primary importance lies in fostering international collaboration and bridging the gap between medical and educational fields, ensuring that participating institutions stay at the forefront of global standards to ultimately improve the quality of life and care for children with disabilities worldwide.
The event was also a great opportunity to meet with our international partners and conductor colleagues from the European and international conductive institutions!
