About the ReLAB-HS rehabilitation resource repository

This rehabilitation resource repository has been developed as part of the Learning, Acting and Building for Rehabilitation in Health Systems (ReLAB-HS) project. This website seeks to support workforce development through providing and maintaining a single, easy to use, comprehensive, open and searchable repository of high quality, evidence based publications created by the many organisations and stakeholders who are working to support the global rehabilitation community. These publications are discovered, evaluated and selected from various sources from around the world before being added to this expanding repository of resources. A public submission form also allows additional publications to be entered into this evaluation and selection process.

Resource inclusion criteria:

  • Relevant to one or more rehabilitation professions and other rehabilitation related health systems stakeholders.
  • Free to access and is not subject to copyright restrictions.
  • Includes only interventions, policies and guidelines that are supported by high quality evidence and display references where appropriate.
