1st Europe Occupational Therapy Congress 2024

Description

What an exciting experience at the 1st Occupational Therapy Europe Congress!
It was wonderful to meet many like-minded occupational therapy clinicians, students, and educators from different countries. It felt more like a global OT Congress, rather than just a European one.
I opted for a poster presentation to challenge my creativity and was proud to represent the Department of Health Studies of the Royal Holloway University of London. My study was about OT students' learning experiences of dementia education in the OT curriculum. I presented my study in a poster session on 17th October, and I made it engaging by explaining my study and asking visitors to share their experiences and suggestions for the topic. The response was amazing and has inspired me to pursue my next research project on dementia education in the OT curriculum. I also had discussions with several American OT educators about potential future collaborations and opportunities for students at Royal Holloway University of London.
