Duarte Afonso joined ForPhysio in September 2024 as a physiotherapist for the SIR 1º Maio handball club in Marinha Grande. He graduated from the Polytechnic Institute of Setúbal in June 2024. Throughout his degree, he aimed to be as proactive as possible, participating in volunteer programs and co-creating various projects. He highlights his internship under the Erasmus program in Belgium, as well as three other short international courses (the last one in Finland), related to community health, pediatric rehabilitation, and occupational safety. Most recently, he completed the course "Physiotherapy in Sports - Screening and Assessment."  Passionate about various areas of intervention, he is particularly interested in musculoskeletal health and sports, as well as having a special curiosity for digital health and occupational health.  Outside of physiotherapy, he loves to travel, exercise, and be a pseudo-film critic. Focused on improving the quality of life of those around him, he considers himself communicative, fun, and motivated to continue learning every day.
