30DoS – Day 19

And today’s polling question is …

Should the CPN focus on profiling physiotherapy in developing countries?

    I think that CPN should develop relationships and engage with physiotherapists wherever there is physiotherapy.

    Profiling sounds ominous and who is to say what characteristics a profile should include (WCPT has country profiles for its members on its website. )or that a country is developing? Aren’t all countries developing from something to another?

    I don’t really like the term ‘developing’ countries, all are all developing. I prefer to use ‘less well resourced’ country, as being factually more correct and less pejorative in tone. And re the vote choice – I’d like to think that there was a more egalitarian approach to our considerations than a specific focus…

    I’d agree with Catherine & Hazel (thanks both for putting into words what was making me feel so uncomfy with today’s vote). Thinking about physiotherapy being ‘in development’ – I wonder whether CPN could provide a safe space for members to engage collectively in critical reflection on a broad theme/issue (e.g. person-centredness, green issues, rationing/resources) which could allow us to explore the discourses, structures & practices that shape what physiotherapy can become in a given time/place? Doing that might help uncover & raise awareness of the politics that govern the development of practice/profession in a way that generates mutual respect & understanding….?
