The theme for the conference, New horizons in dementia: Building on hope, continues the momentum gained during our 2020 conference. The 2022 conference will look at progress and barriers, new developments and innovations across all 7-action areas of the WHO Global action plan on dementia. We’ll shine a light on recent developments and forecast breakthroughs in research, diagnosis, treatment, care, and support, and of course our continued focus on awareness raising, challenging stigma and advocacy.
