6. Definition
The World Confederation forPhysical Therapy (WCPT) or
World Physiotherapy recognizes that:
“Disasters resulting from natural, environmental and
technological hazards (includes biological, geological,
hydrometeorological and socio-natural hazards) have a
major and long-lasting impact on people and the countries in
which they live”.

7. History
The roots of physiotherapy can be traced back to the early 20th century
when physiotherapists were involved in the rehabilitation of people
affected by war and illness.
Physiotherapists continue to be involved in these situations and are often
called on to be part of a humanitarian response. This could include
providing support to people in conflict-affected parts of the world, being
part of humanitarian response to a natural disaster, or working with
people affected by pandemics.
