In light of today’s deeply connected social and environmental crises, environmental and sustainability education is increasingly being integrated into public health and healthcare professional education around the world (Barna, Maric, Simons, Kumar & Blankestijn, 2020). The Norwegian ‘regulations on national guidelines for physiotherapist education’ clearly support the integration of these topics by stating that ‘in addition to individually oriented work, physiotherapists should contribute to improving public health and the sustainability of society on the group and system-levels…with competencies in interdisciplinary and goal-oriented collaborations within the health- and care-sector and other sectors…to meet societies existing and future needs’ (Forskrift om nasjonal retningslinje for fysioterapeututdanning, 2019, our translation). In a new introductory public health module for our 1st year physiotherapy students at UiT Norges Arktiske Universitet we therefore integrated education about the social and environmental problems of our time and how they interact with health at many levels to inspire students to imagine novel futures for physiotherapy and the role of healthcare professionals in the future.
鉴于当今与社会和环境危机密切相关，环境和可持续发展教育越来越多地被纳入世界各地的公共卫生和医疗保健专业教育(Barna, Maric, Simons, Kumar & Blankestijn, 2020)。挪威的“国家物理治疗师教育指导方针条例”明确支持这些主题的整合，指出“除了个人导向的工作，物理治疗师应该在群体和系统层面上为改善公共卫生和社会的可持续性做出贡献……在卫生和护理部门以及其他部门内具有跨学科和目标导向的合作能力……以满足社会现有和未来的需求”(Forskrift from nasjonal retningslinje for fysioterapeututdanning, 2019，我们的翻译)。因此，在面向挪威UiT大学理疗专业一年级学生的新入门公共卫生模块中，我们整合了关于我们这个时代的社会和环境问题的教育，以及它们如何在许多层面上与健康相互作用，以激励学生想象物理治疗的新未来，以及未来医疗保健专业人员的角色。

‘‘Urban health then and now, a reflection (Physiotherapist, 15.03.2150)’ takes its starting point in the development of human settlements and population throughout history. On this basis, it envisions a future in which a shift to greener urban cities has led to various improvements in people’s health and social conditions, both globally and locally. As more and more people are living in cities and the greening of cities is underway, this vision and its exploration all but a fantasy. With added collaboration from health professionals, urban planning and design could support the creation of even more green spaces and greener buildings, leading to cleaner air, more physical activity, natural insulation of homes, carbon sequestration, local food production, increased biodiversity and ultimately, a time with more social cohesion and healthier and happier people. By never loosing focus of people’s health, function and physical activity, it reminds us that it might not be wholesale change that is at stake, but that a broadening of our professional identity, roles and responsibilities could contribute more broadly than we have thought so far.

In Japan, a physiotherapist is considered to be ‘experienced’ and having sufficient time in the field, regardless of their level, efficacy, or quality of training, after five years of practice. However, this definition is insufficient for establishing quality and uniformity among physiotherapists in Japan. The purpose of this study was to establish the groundwork for standardisation in education and evaluation. It aimed to evaluate physiotherapy skills by means of a Weight Shift (WS) practical assessment task. Participants of this study included 10 physiotherapists from two institutions. The WS task was repeated three times on a simulated patient. The ground reaction force (GRF) of the simulated patient was recorded during the task. The ratio of the centre of pressure (COP) displacement was calculated by dividing the COP displacement by the distance between the centre of pressure of both feet of the simulated patient to normalise. Correlational statistical analysis was used to confirm whether years of experience changes the degree of WS. The obtained data was compared between the institutions of therapists. The results of this study confirm that the correlation between the data obtained and years of therapists’ experience is weak or absent. There were significant differences between each institution’s ratios for COP displacement as well as for the maximum GRF. It was considered that years of therapists’ experience does not necessarily correlate with physiotherapy skill, especially if participants had six or more years of experience. Greater differences were observed between institutions with regards to the characteristics of physiotherapy skill.

‘Circles’ takes us on a phantasy tour de force and into deep connection with the earth under our feet while, at the same time, being a prime example of creativity and imagination. In this story, future physiotherapists in the high north collect reindeer manure to support the growth of plants that can help reduce mercury pollution – a very real and longstanding problem in the Arctic. Once again, this is a story about how collaboration and curiosity can turn bad conditions to the better and open us up to new opportunities and entirely new tasks. And in the exploration of these new tasks, the digging of manure and joy of touching the earth with our hands, ‘Circles’ also reminds us that every little action has an effect on everything else and can be a meaningful contribution to healthier and more sustainable futures, no matter how distant, small or strange it might seem.

´PLANKTasjen´ – Historien om Aurelia Oline Ebeltoft er en fortelling om hvordan kraften og oppfinnsomheten ved kvinnelig ledelse og globalt samarbeid kan bidra til å finne løsninger på problemer skapt av alvorlige globale miljøforandringer. Med mål om å løse problemet med luft-forurensning og dens konsekvenser for folks helse og lungefunksjon, har Aurelias oppfinnelse av PLANKTasjen – algeoppdrett for oksygenproduksjon – bokstavelig talt blåst nytt liv i mennesker og miljø. Oppdrett av alger utforskes faktisk med håp om å oppnå en rekke fordeler innenfor helse, teknologi og miljø, og fortellingen ligger dermed nærmere nåtiden enn man skulle tro.

‘A diary from the future’ thinks through the positive social, environmental and health effects of a large-scale transition to plant-based diets. These include positive changes for food production, consumption and food security, and with that, also social justice, equity, education, poverty and the co-existence with other species. Even just the way the story thinks through and recognises these complex relationships and effects is an achievement and a novelty for physiotherapists in itself. Reaching well beyond this, however, this is also a story about how fear and darkness can turn into hope, optimism and curiosity for the future as a result of learning and thinking about these complex relationships. Finally, ‘A diary from the future’ is also a reflection on the possibilities of broadening our understanding of physiotherapy, of the need for change, resistance to it, and the creative potential that is released when these resistances are overcome.
