In your opinion, how can your country build strong leadership and increase political support for rehabilitation? Post your comments on the discussion board.

Mexico can build strong leadership and increase political support for rehabilitation by implementing the Guide for action, but before doing that we need to identify what are the barriers for the implementation of the Guide for action. Mexico is not doing anything about implementing these tools and rehabilitation needs to be better integrated into health systems. The first thing I would do is a RCA to identify what are the root causes for Mexico not implementing the Guide for Action and will try to address the root causes. Once addressed these causes and the problem of not implementing the Guide for action, I would follow the 4 steps: STARS, GRASP, FRAME and ACTOR.
