World Alzheimer’s Month 2012 - Dementia: Living together

international campaign to raise awareness and challenge stigma.
The theme for World Alzheimer's Month 2012 is Dementia: Living together.

Alzheimer associations across the world will focus their activities on reducing the stigma associated with dementia and making communities more dementia-friendly by offering a range of programmes and events. Activities will include educational seminars, workshops and enjoyable social events for people with dementia and their carers. Memory Walks will take place in numerous countries with communities gathering to show their commitment to remembering those who they have lost and creating a society where people with dementia and their families can live without the fear of discrimination.
