In 2019 I was on a Delphi panel to provide advice into the development of the World Health Organization's (WHO) Rehabilitation Competency Framework. Here is a description by WHO of the need for the framework
Profound rehabilitation worker shortages, maldistribution, and issues of quality and relevance pose a major barrier to people accessing the care they need, when and where then need it. Competency frameworks are an important mechanism for addressing these challenges, especially in contexts where the rehabilitation workforce is emerging.
The WHO Rehabilitation Competency Framework will be launched on 26th February, 2021. More details are here: https://who.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_6lTQFccYRoCC8dWuhirZQA
