Alzheimer's Disease International Information

Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI) is the international federation of Alzheimer associations around the world, in official relations with the World Health Organization. ADI's vision is an improved quality of life for people with dementia and their families throughout the world. Each of our members is a non-profit Alzheimer association supporting people with dementia and their families. ADI aims to make dementia a global health priority, to build and strengthen Alzheimer associations, and to raise awareness about dementia worldwide. Stronger Alzheimer associations are better able to meet the needs of people with dementia and their carers. Key activities • Raising global awareness through World Alzheimer's Month™ (September every year). • Providing Alzheimer associations with training in running a non-profit organization through our Alzheimer University programme. • Hosting an international conference where staff and volunteers from Alzheimer associations meet each other as well as medical and care professionals, researchers, people with dementia and their carers. • Disseminating reliable and accurate information through our website and publications. • Supporting the 10/66 Dementia Research Group's work on the prevalence and impact of dementia in developing countries. ADI is based in London and is registered as a non-profit organization in Illinois, USA.
