In September 2024, Alzheimer Athens hosted the 2nd Alzheimer Festival at the Stavros Niarchos Cultural Center (SNFCC) Lighthouse, drawing more than 7,000 participants. Held on 14 and 15 September, under the theme “Let’s Give the Right Stigma to Dementia,” the festival aimed to inspire understanding and inclusivity. Prominent figures, including Minister of Health Adonis Georgiadis, attended the event. In a landmark moment, the Minister pledged to pass legislation on the rights of dementia patients and caregivers by the end of the year, signalling progress toward a more supportive framework. The festival’s programme included lectures by leading experts, such as Dr Paraskevi Sakka, President of Alzheimer Athens, who shared the latest advancements in dementia care and emphasised the importance of implementing the National Action Plan for Dementia. Engaging discussions allowed attendees to voice their concerns, while hands-on workshops covered essential topics like nutrition, physical activity, and innovative technologies for dementia diagnosis and management.
