This event is dedicated to bridging critical gaps in dementia awareness, diagnosis, advocacy, research, and support through in-depth discussions among a diverse group of stakeholders, including experts, family and professional caregivers, research scholars, students, academicians, senior citizens, healthcare professionals, and policymakers.

Conference Objectives:
> Identify Gaps and Bridge Solutions: Highlight and address gaps in dementia awareness, diagnosis, research, and care, with actionable solutions to close these divides.
> Foster Collaborative Networks: Strengthen partnerships between government entities, corporates, NGOs, researchers, academicians, and service providers to expand support for people with dementia and their family caregivers.
> Facilitate Knowledge Sharing: Offer a platform for participants to exchange insights, discuss challenges, and share best practices, research advancements, and innovations in dementia care.
> Shape Policy and Advocacy: Harness the expertise of policymakers and advocacy groups to develop inclusive and impactful dementia care policies for India.
