Lessons for Advocacy
Dr Joanne Pike, President and CEO of Alzheimer's Association and George Vradenburg, chair Davos Alzheimer's Collaborative reflect on lessons for advocacy movements in the era of treatments.
The new paradigm: dementia in an era of treatments
The World Dementia Council is holding a series of high-level virtual roundtables on dementia in an era of treatments. This second virtual roundtable will explore lessons for advocacy movements. For advocacy movements, thinking about how to go forward from here is critical. There are very practical questions, that other disease areas have experienced, such as securing access. Advocacy movements will not just need to refocus activities but also evolve how they talk about dementia.
The roundtable discussions will help shape a policy paper that the Council will be published later in the year. This high level dialogue will bring together leading researchers, industry, policymakers and advocates.
Date: Thursday 27 February
Time: 1400-1530 GMT
Platform: Zoom
