Council of the Portuguese Association of Physiotherapists (APFISIO).<\/p><p>The meeting, which took place on 10 May, was attended by the President of the Portuguese Bar Association, Ant\u00f3nio Lopes, Pedro Rebelo and Afonso Neutel, and the President Maria Jo\u00e3o Bigode and the Vice-President S\u00e9rgio Neto, representing the Association.<\/p><p>Greetings were presented to the new elected social bodies of APFISIO and the most relevant issues of the institutional relationship between the Order and the Association were analysed, under the terms of the memorandum of understanding signed in 2020, in which it was agreed to establish the progressive and necessary conditions so that, as soon as possible, the Order of Physiotherapists will have a seat, by affiliation, at the World Physiotherapy.<\/p><p>In this context, the Order, as the structure that regulates physiotherapy and physiotherapists in Portugal, informed that it would formalise its candidacy to the World Physiotherapy (WP), with effect from January 2023, and APFISIO naturally recognised this candidacy.<\/p><p>In order not to suddenly interrupt the work that has been developed by the APFISIO Interest Groups, which would automatically lose international representation in the WP, the Portuguese Physioterapists Association has guaranteed that it will ensure the <em>endorsement<\/em> of all the groups, on a transitional basis, until the Order's own representative structures are in a position to assume membership of the international organisation. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0The model of <em>endorsement <\/em>will be opportunely analysed by the Order with each Interest Group individually and with the National Directive Council of APFisio, according to the characteristics and needs of each one.<\/p><p>The Ordem dos Fisioterapeutas and the Associa\u00e7\u00e3o Portuguesa de Fisioterapeutas also agreed to hold regular meetings to clarify their respective roles in pursuing the objectives of developing physiotherapy in Portugal and increasing literacy as an important step in affirming the profession.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The
