| We are constantly growing older, and there are an increasing number of elderly people living with dementia who are merely being â ºtaken care ofâ ¹. There is no question that we need alternatives to the established procedures.What can we do to create spaces where we can stay in life â rather than just staying alive? How can we turn the individual environments of people with and without dementia into â ºplaces of human warmthâ ¹?In Germany, initiatives attempting to answer these questions are on the rise: Committed individuals from politics, art, churches, social and volunteer work etc. are creatively working towards dementia-friendly communities. In this book, three authors, intimately familiar with the topic, explore initial movements, obstacles, and first approaches. |
