Supporting and Accommodating People with Dementia at Professional Conferences and Other Events

A Dementia Alliance International publication. Because members of Dementia Alliance International (DAI) have a unique perspective on conferences we decided to assemble responses from post-event informal email surveys of the past four years to see how people with dementia and care partners feel about the access, support, and enablement provided at professional meetings of Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) and other conferences or events.

In other words, we asked if such events are dementia friendly, accessible, and accommodating for people of all ages and disabilities.
