title: Asia-Pacific Consensus Statement on dementia.
abstract: The 12 national Alzheimer's Associations that contributed to this Consensus Statement will continue to network with one another regionally and will continue to share relevant expertise and practical resources. It is expected that regional consensus on dementia will evolve in individual member countries and in the Asia-Pacific region as a whole. It is the hope of the participating members of these two consensus conferences that this document will provide the inspiration, direction, and practical ideas to further advance the goals of national Alzheimer's Associations and to further advance dementia-related medical and service activities within the Asia-Pacific region.
