Global Consortium for Design and Dementia Research
Advancing good design for people living with dementia through collaborative research and knowledge translation.
About Us
Millions of people worldwide are living with dementia. In light of this, investing in innovative research and novel approaches to better understand and support individuals, their care partners, and the wider community becomes crucial. This is where the Global Consortium for Design and Dementia Research comes in. It provides a unique platform that combines the power of design with cutting-edge research to advance our understanding and care for individuals living with dementia and the people around them.
The consortium is dedicated to bringing together researchers and people living with dementia from various fields to collaborate and brainstorm creative solutions to enhance lives. By focusing on the intersection of design and dementia research, the organisation offers a fresh perspective that has the potential to revolutionise the way we approach and address literacy in design and dementia.
One of the consortium's key features is its inclusive approach, which ensures that researchers from various countries can participate and contribute to its mission. Consortium members have access to a wealth of resources, including information about upcoming events such as webinars, collaboration meetings, and resources. This collaborative environment fosters a spirit of innovation and cooperation, driving forward the collective goal of advancing dementia research through design.
Whether you are a seasoned researcher in the field or someone with a keen interest in dementia care, the Global Consortium for Design and Dementia Research offers a valuable platform for networking, learning, and making a real impact in the lives of those affected by dementia. Join us in empowering minds and shaping the future of dementia research through the transformative power of design.
