Forget dementia, remember the person!

We sincerely hope that the message of the first-ever ‘Flemish working group of people with dementia’ in Belgium, as a core realization of our awareness raising campaign, gives people in other countries an extra dose of inspiration and motivation to continue building on an inclusive society that gives people with dementia and their loved ones the place they deserve: not in the margin, but at the center of a kind and understanding society. And we also hope that our campaign baseline Forget dementia, remember the person may inspire people across the globe, because in the end people with dementia should always be the reference point and quality check of a dementia-friendly society. That is true inclusion and empowerment and the only way forward.
