First Global Ministerial Conference on Global Action Against Dementia

The World Health Organization (WHO) is holding the First Global Ministerial Conference on Global Action Against Dementia on 16 and 17 March, at its headquarters in Geneva.

Following on from the G8 Dementia Summit in London in December 2013, this event brings together a much larger number of countries from across the world to focus on dementia.

The aim of the conference is to place action on dementia higher on the national and global political agendas, and to highlight the potential benefits of co-ordinated global action.
