4 WELCOME Dear colleagues and friends, the Associazione Riabilitatori dell Insufficienza Respiratoria (ARIR) is organising its second congress on the shores of Genova, Italy, from the 21st to the 23rd of March This congress offers the opportunity to meet colleagues from Europe and around the world, who are interested in enhancing their knowledge and sharing experiences so as to improve respiratory care and further promote the development of applied technology. Professionals will be sharing their clinical and practical experience in the form of workshops, practical symposia and roundtable discussions. Creative and innovative issues in Respiratory Care will be presented in the plenary sessions while the exhibition hall will expose you to the latest in respiratory care technologies and related therapies. Genova, the most important and fascinating city overlooking the Ligurian Sea, is the ideal setting for this conference, to make this event an educational, fun and memorable experience. We are very pleased to welcome you in Genova! ARIR PROFILE ARIR was created in 1989 by a group of Physiotherapists who wanted to give a voice and contribute to the development of this profession by means of continuing education and discussion between those working in Physiotherapy and Pulmonary Rehabilitation. The multidisciplinary and Evidence-Based-Medicine approach are the preferred paradigms for pursuing the above objectives. In the last 15 years, ARIR has created links of significant interaction and collaboration with associations relating to and part of the field of Physiotherapy and Pulmonary rehabilitation. Arir has organized continuing education opportunities with the Italian Group of Cystic Fibrosis Physiotherapist (GIFT/FC) and with the Italia Physiotherapists Association (AIFI). ARIR has been a collaborator in the founding of the European Respiratory Care Association (ERCA) and since 2002 has been affiliated with the American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) and with the Italian Hospital Pneumonologists Association (AIPO). Another important iniziative by ARIR is the Master in Physiotherapy and Respiratory Rehabilitation, which is now at the sixth edition and has trained more than 100 Italian and foreign physiotherapists. This iniziative contributes concretely to the creation of this discipline in Italy.
