Summary of the Profession

We are pleased to announce that the Summary of the Profession 2026 will be published in the coming days, featuring a refreshed, more reader-friendly design. This edition also incorporates the recommendations from the review conducted by Duervation, including the addition of an Executive Summary and Country Profiles. We hope you find this publication a valuable resource in supporting your advocacy efforts in the months ahead.

One-to-One Meetings with Member Associations

The COTEC Executive Committee has shortlisted a number of Member Associations to be invited to one-to-one meetings, with the aim of identifying ways in which COTEC can further support its members. To date, the Russian Association of Occupational Therapists has accepted the invitation, and the meeting was held a few weeks ago. If any of our Member Associations would like to schedule a one-to-one meeting, please contact us at info@coteceurope.eu.
