Mission

The CIRRIS' mission is to contribute to the development and to the diffusion of knowledge in the field of adaptation, readaptation and of the support to social integration. The main objective of its reseach activities is to study the personal determinants (disabilities and deficiences) and  the environmental determinants (obstacles and facilitating factors) that influence the social integration of people with physical disabilities. Through the diffusion of its members' knowledge and expertise and its proximity to the medical community the CIRRIS has been able to participate in the development of evidence-based practices.
