ADI launch revamped Alzheimer University for national associations

Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) has launched their revamped Alzheimer University (AU).  

The Alzheimer University is a learning space for national Alzheimer associations. It provides access to a range of materials including a series of workshops, led by subject matter experts within ADI, and interactive peer sessions to support participants in running successful national associations. 

Laura Aubert, ADI Head of Membership, says: 
“I am so thrilled with the successful launch of the first module of the Alzheimer University programme! A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful participants from around the world for their positivity, willingness to learn, share experiences, and embrace challenges throughout the workshop.”
