Through the addition of eight new members to the International Consortium for Non-Hospitalised Road Traffic Injuries (ConsoRTI) (formed by the Centre of Research Excellence in Recovery following Road Traffic Injuries 2014-2019), we've strengthened its capacity of national and international collaborations.

Aim

To advance the understanding of the factors (i.e. physical, social, and psychological) that contribute to recovery, and to develop new and effective strategies to improve the recovery and rehabilitation of individuals who have been injured in road traffic crashes.
