Resumen
The chapter focuses on the significance of lifelong learning in addressing challenges in occupational therapy practice in the Philippines. Lifelong learning impacts personal development, social justice, and sustainable development, aligning with the UN’s 2030 Agenda and Sustainable Development Goal 4. For Filipino occupational therapists, lifelong learning, mandated through continuing professional development (CPD) activities, is crucial for maintaining and enhancing professional competences. This chapter discusses the integration of formal, non-formal, and informal learning in the CPD framework, as well as the practice of reflection and critical reflection, highlighting their benefits at micro and macro levels.
