This website was established to keep those in the dementia community informed and engaged with the learning from the project. There are multiple ways community members and advocates can participate in this research.

​

Focus groups 

 

We conducted two rounds of focus group discussions, with:

1. People living with dementia

2. Care partners, family members and close friends of people living with dementia who have experienced violence, abuse or neglect

3. Professionals providing individual advocacy or legal services to people living with dementia, and

4. Professionals from human rights and social justice organisations engaged in systemic advocacy on ageing and disability rights.

 

Thank you to everyone who participated in the focus groups.

International activism and research network

​

In developing this project website we are aiming to create a community of practice and resource hive for people living with dementia, activists, policy folk, practitioners, researchers and allies interested in redress for people with dementia. We encourage you to connect with the research, and with others in our community by engaging on social media, knowledge translation and our collaborative gatherings.

​

We welcome you to our hive, and will be happy to add you to our contact list by completing the contact form below.

Dementia reparations report launch

​

In March 2023 we hosted two online launches of our report 'Reparations for People Living with Dementia in Residential Aged Care': an Australian focused launch and an international focused launch. These online events provided opportunities to reflect on the findings and recommendations of our project and discuss strategies for longer term action and research on redress and reparations.
