QUALIREHAB participates in the THCS Thematic Atelier

On 9 November 2026, the first THCS Thematic Atelier took place in Bilbao, Spain, hosted by Biosistemak at the B Accelerator Tower. Organized within Work Package 8 of the Transforming Health and Care Systems (THCS) Partnership under the title “From Research to Engagement – Connecting with Stakeholders. Communicating Value. Creating Impact.”, the one-day event was held the day before the THCS Annual Conference.

Researchers from projects funded under the THCS Joint Transnational Calls 2023, 2024 and 2025 came together to exchange experiences, discover each other’s research and explore new ways of communicating its value. The QUALIREHAB team took part in the day.

The program combined bilateral exchanges, interactive challenges and group discussions. Participants stepped outside their own projects, explored different perspectives and reflected on how research findings can become more accessible, relevant and meaningful to stakeholders. The day also included an introduction to the THCS Knowledge Hub and a session on turning knowledge into action.

Research creates knowledge, and connections help turn it into impact. QUALIREHAB thanks the researchers and project representatives who contributed to the discussions, the THCS colleagues for their support, and Biosistemak for hosting the event in Bilbao.
