World Alzheimer’s Day is observed annually on September 21 to raise awareness about the neurological disorder. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common cause of dementia and affects the person’s memory, mental ability, and ability to carry out simple tasks.
World Alzheimer’s Day is part of the annual World Alzheimer’s Month which is observed in September to sensitize, educate, and demystify dementia. The month is being observed by the Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI), an international federation which raises awareness on the disorder.
This year’s theme for World Alzheimer’s Month is ‘Know Dementia, know Alzheimers’. It is in continuation with the last year campaign which focused on warning signs and diagnosis of dementia and also the effect of COVID-19 pandemic on the dementia community around the world. However, this year, special emphasis will be laid on post-diagnosis support for dementia.
