KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGE
Talks & Workshops
Sharing falls efficacy research through conferences, professional education, workshops, international collaboration and community engagement.
Knowledge exchange connects research with clinicians, researchers, students, community partners and older adults, supporting discussion, learning and translation into practice.
WHY WE ENGAGE
Connecting Research, Practice and Community
Falls prevention and management benefit from conversations across disciplines and sectors. Talks, workshops and collaborative activities provide opportunities to share emerging evidence, challenge existing perspectives and translate research into meaningful practice.
RESEARCH
Share new knowledge
Communicate conceptual, measurement and intervention research relating to falls efficacy.
EDUCATION
Develop capability
Support clinicians, students and community practitioners through applied learning and professional development.
COLLABORATION
Build connections
Create opportunities for international, interdisciplinary and cross-sector collaboration.
IMPACT
Translate into practice
Connect research findings with clinical, professional and community needs.
KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGE
From Research Presentation to Applied Learning
Engagement activities span academic dissemination, professional education, community learning and collaborative exchange.
CONFERENCES & SYMPOSIA
Research Dissemination
Presenting falls efficacy, measurement and rehabilitation research at national and international scientific meetings.
PROFESSIONAL WORKSHOPS
Applied Learning
Interactive sessions translating falls efficacy, healthy ageing, functional fitness and rehabilitation research into applied practice.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Bringing Research to the Community
Adapting falls-efficacy concepts and movement activities for community organisations and populations with different needs.
PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION
Functional Fitness Screening & Falls Efficacy Prescription
This professional education programme integrates functional fitness assessment with falls-efficacy principles to support older adults living well in the community.
Learning activities include functional fitness assessment, interpretation, behavioural-change conversations and application of falls-efficacy concepts to practice.
INTERNATIONAL ENGAGEMENT
Sharing Falls Efficacy Across Borders
International engagement provides opportunities to exchange perspectives, develop collaborations and examine how falls-efficacy concepts translate across populations, cultures and healthcare systems.
University Collaboration
Academic visits and seminars support exchange on falls efficacy, ageing, rehabilitation and measurement science.
International Research Dissemination
Sharing findings with international physiotherapy, rehabilitation, gerontology and falls-prevention communities.
Professional Education
Delivering applied workshops on healthy ageing, falls prevention, falls management and functional capability.
Developing Collaboration
Building partnerships for measurement validation, translation, implementation and future research.
INNOVATION
Rehabilitation, Technology and Future Practice
Knowledge exchange also extends to digital health, rehabilitation technology, robotics and new models of movement assessment and care.
DIGITAL HEALTH
Movement Assessment
Exploring emerging technologies that may support assessment, monitoring and rehabilitation.
ROBOTICS
Technology-enabled Rehabilitation
Engaging with developments in healthcare robotics and physical technologies relevant to movement and ageing.
HEALTH INNOVATION
Future Models of Care
