Summer Reprise #1 - Human Rights and Dementia

from Dementia Dialogue · host dementiadialogue

Our summer reprises focus on the theme of advocacy at the system, community service and individual level.  This first episode released in May 2020  outlines the connection between human rights and dementia, with particular attention to the impact of COVID-19 on long-term care. Mario is a dementia activist who is a co-creator of a Canadian Charter of Rights for Canadians with Dementia for the Alzheimer Society of Canada. Laura Tamblyn-Watts of CanAge is a lawyer and leading advocate for older people and Margaret Gillis leads the International Longevity Centre, Ottawa and is working to have Canada adopt the UN Convention on the Rights of Older Persons. Each gives their own advice on what listeners can do to promote human rights for people with dementia.
