Changes in health and function often occur early in adulthood in individuals with Cerebral Palsy. In recognition of World CP Day, join us online to learn about the reasons behind these declines, how strength training can enhance well-being, and insights from the development of a customized course for managing fatigue.


The speakers include Mark Peterson, PhD, M.S., FACSM from the University of Michigan, Pedro Valadão, who recently graduated with a PhD in biomechanics from the University of Jyväskylä and physiotherapist, MSc Ellinor Nilsson, psychologist, PhD, Sevérine Hedberg and occupational therapist Louise Lunde.



The webinar is primarily for professionals (for example physicians, allied health care professionals and therapists) but people with CP and their families are very welcome and encouraged to attend.

After the presentations there will be time for discussion. The presentations will be held in English.

The webinar is free of charge. It is organized by The Finnish CP Association, CP Sverige and Arcada University.


We look forward to interarcting with our colleagues and families from all the Nordic countries!
