Global thought leaders in dementia research
Older and younger people living with dementia need access to services designed to support their unique and specific needs.
We help make this happen by building and sharing dementia knowledge and supporting others in improving practice for people with complex needs worldwide.
Our range of dementia services and programs:
- draw on local and international expertise
- combine research, design and practical modelling
- provide access to high-quality and tested tools
- participate in quality research into dementia, environmental design, aged and palliative care.
A commitment to excellence
We are committed to continual learning across our key focus areas and ensuring our work is evidence-based and aligned with best practices. The views of people with lived experience of dementia inform the knowledge and advice we provide. This helps support our Mission of improving quality of life for people in need, including those living with dementia.
But none of this can be achieved without strong relationships with leaders in dementia care and research. Collaboration is our lifeblood. Through global knowledge sharing and the pursuit of excellence, we can empower professionals to deliver high-quality care.
