SUMMARY:World Alzheimer's Day
DESCRIPTION:World Alzheimer’s Month \n\n\n\nWorld Alzheimer’s Month is the international campaign from Alzheimer’s Disease International that takes place every September. \n\n\n\nEach September\, people unite from all corners of the world to raise awareness and to challenge the stigma that persists around Alzheimer’s disease and all types of dementia.\n\n\n\nDuring World Alzheimer’s Month\, we call on everyone\, from individuals to large organisations\, including every Alzheimer and dementia association globally\, to support World Alzheimer’s Month by getting involved.     In 2024 we are once again shining a light on attitudes to dementia around the world. The 2024 campaign and World Alzheimer Report\, which will be launched on the eve of World Alzheimer’s Day\, 20 September\, will again challenge why so many people still wrongly believe that dementia is a part of normal ageing. This reason alone highlights how important public awareness campaigns\, like World Alzheimer’s Month\, are for changing perceptions and increasing existing public knowledge around Alzheimer’s disease and dementia.   \n\n\n\nThe 2024 World Alzheimer’s Month campaign will centre around the taglines ‘Time to act on dementia\, Time to act on Alzheimer’s’. The global awareness raising campaign focusses on attitudes toward dementia and seeks to redress stigma and discrimination which still exists around the condition\, while highlighting the positive steps being undertaken by organisations and governments globally to develop a more dementia friendly society. \n\n\n\n\nAlzheimer Ireland website\n\n\n\nAlzheimers Disease International website
