Hope for Dementia’s presentation at the Alzheimer’s Disease International Global Conference 2024 is now live!
The theme of the conference is ‘Dementia: Insights. Innovations. Inspirations.’ Our contribution to this gathering of global experts is to propose specific actions to make dementia a public health priority in healthcare systems worldwide.
The rate of growth in dementia diagnoses continues to grow at an unsustainable pace. According to Alzheimer’s Disease International, Someone in the world develops dementia every 3 seconds. There are over 55 million people worldwide living with dementia in 2020. This number will almost double every 20 years, reaching 78 million in 2030 and 139 million in 2050.
Beyond trying to find a cure, the best way to slow the growth trends Hope for Dementia strongly advocates for greater focus and investment in the reduction of the modifiable risks of dementia through the delivery of services at all levels of healthcare systems.
Our poster and video presentation present a framework for the prevention of dementia and the deceleration and reversal of the symptoms of dementia at all levels of healthcare systems.
