ABOUT THIS WEBINAR

“COVID-19 crisis has highlighted the ongoing global lack of preparedness for dementia, one of the biggest health and social care crises of this and future generations”.

In World Alzheimer’s Month, as part of Panorama activities we invite you to our next webinar on September 25, at 10:00 AM (EST) titled “Let’s talk about dementia in Latin America and the Caribbean”.

Paola Barbarino will provide a global perspective on dementia, with a specific focus on Latin America and the Caribbean. During her presentation she will introduce dementia, and how it is positioned within policy surrounding mental health and non-communicable diseases. She will outline the role of Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) in addressing the global dementia pandemic, and in particular the organization’s response to the global COVID-19 pandemic, and finally she will posit potential points of collaboration between ADI and IADB.
