A highlight of the book is its multinational and multidisciplinary approach presenting perspectives from public health, individual patients and doctors, economists and health care purchasers and managers.

Rehabilitation 2030

With the rising prevalence of noncommunicable diseases and injuries and the ageing population, there is a substantial and ever-increasing unmet need for rehabilitation. In many parts of the world, however, the capacity to provide rehabilitation is limited or non-existent and fails to adequately address the needs of the population. This report summarizes the key messages of the Rehabilitation 2030: A Call for Action, a WHO hosted meeting which took place in February 2017 and brought together over 200 rehabilitation experts from 46 countries. Information within the report is presented for each session, in chronological order. The Call for Action, list of participants, agenda, infographics and related resources can be found in the report annexes. All other meeting resources, including the background papers, concept note, translated versions of the Call for Action, and accompanying video “Rehabilitation in the 21st century” can be found on the WHO rehabilitation webpage: https://www.who.int/news-room/events/detail/2017/02/06/default-calendar/rehabilitation-2030-a-call-for-action.

Package of interventions for rehabilitation. Module 2. Musculoskeletal conditions

The Package of Interventions for Rehabilitation (PIR) is a resource that provides relevant information on essential interventions for rehabilitation and related resources (material, human and time) required for the delivery of the interventions. The PIR is available for 20 health conditions amenable to rehabilitation that are organized in seven disease area-specific modules (musculoskeletal conditions, neurological conditions, cardiopulmonary conditions, neurodevelopmental conditions, sensory impairments, cancer, and mental health). The interventions included in the PIR are relevant to Universal Health Coverage. The PIR provides countries with information relevant for the planning, budgeting, and implementation of rehabilitation in their health systems. While Ministries of Health are the main target audience, the information available with the PIR is also useful for service planners and providers, researchers, and academics.
