About International Federation of Societies for Hand Therapy (IFSHT)

The International Federation of Societies for Hand Therapy (IFSHT) is comprised of 29 member country societies that represent more than 5,000 hand therapists worldwide. IFSHT coordinates the activities of the various societies and endeavors to increase and enhance the exchange of knowledge of hand therapy worldwide.

Every three years, IFSHT holds a Triennial Congress that is hosted by a member country; and in 2010, the congress will be hosted by the American Society of Hand Therapists (ASHT). When possible, IFSHT meets concurrently with the International Federation of Societies for Surgery of the Hand.
