International Cooperation
Through international projects, RG Aktiv Rehabilitering has supported the establishment of similar organizations in many other countries.
Description of Activities
The purpose of our international work is to share knowledge and experience in areas such as organizational development, outreach programs, and the Active Rehabilitation method. The goal is to support passionate individuals in newly founded organizations abroad, so they can continue to develop their structures and services.
RG maintains ongoing relationships with these new organizations, enabling continuous exchange of knowledge and experience.
