To mark World Alzheimer's Day, the Institute of Public Health (IPH) of the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI), in collaboration with the Department of Health and Social Affairs of the Canton of Ticino (DSS), Pro Senectute Ticino and Moesano, Alzheimer's Ticino, the City of Lugano, Lugano Istituti Sociali (LIS), the Associazione Ticinese degli Psicologi (ATP) and the Swiss Red Cross Sottoceneri Section (CRSS), has devised a series of meetings that will explore the experiences of family carers of people with dementia.
On five evenings, a panel of local and international experts will explore key topics related to care and support. During the meetings, animated videos will be screened that I had the pleasure of making and that tell the story of dementia from the point of view of family carers who have contributed to the progress of research in this field in Ticino in recent years. These in turn will enrich the discussion with experts, institutions and Giancarlo Dillena, lecturer in media communication and moderator of the series of events.
