Dear Colleagues,

We are honored to welcome you to Buenos Aires City for a congress which we believe will feature a very innovative program, designed to meet the needs of PMR doctors, rehabilitation teams and patients for the 21st century

Hosting an ISPRM Congress in South America ​is​ a unique opportunity for you to share our culture and passion for Malbec wine, good beef and tango dancing.

Buenos Aires is a city with its own personality; it is both cosmopolitan and contradictory, dynamic and traditional, historical and modern with a unique nightlife.

For those who wish to do some more travelling before or after the Congress, you can visit beautiful touristic places such as Patagonia, Iguazu Falls, Perito Moreno, Mendoza´s wine route and the Northwest with the Inca culture.

We look forward to seeing you all in Buenos Aires!
