Creating Dementia-Friendly and Inclusive Spaces Case Competition

The Creating Dementia-Friendly and Inclusive Spaces case competition brought together local businesses, community organizations, and post-secondary students interested in creating spaces that are dementia-friendly and inviting for all.
Taking place over two days in January 2024, this free event gave participants an opportunity to address obstacles experienced by people living with dementia and help them actively participate and connect within their community.
This project is supported by the Supporting Inclusion through Intergenerational Partnerships (SIIP) project at the Schlegel-UW Research Institute for Aging (RIA). SIIP is funded by the Government of Canada’s New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP).
