Abstract

The World Alzheimer Report 2019 presented the largest global survey of attitudes to dementia at the time. Findings outlined in the original report showed that stigma impacts the everyday lives of people with dementia in complex and harmful ways. Five years on, we return to the topic to explore further how we can continue to address the harms associated with dementia-related stigma.
