CORSU Hospital) and the established infrastructure. Furthermore, this 2nd phase will conduct a comprehensive research on a
cost-benefit analysis of 3D printing technology in service delivery.

The Goal of the Project is to Improve access to rehabilitation care for the refugees with disabilities through the
