Creating a Dementia-Friendly Neighbourhood: A Yio Chu Kang Pilot Project

Creating a Dementia-Friendly Neighbourhood: A Yio Chu Kang Pilot Project is a documentation of the AIC-CLC Dementia-Friendly Neighbourhood Study, which is the first community-based research project that gathers first-hand data and insights from persons living with dementia, their caregivers, and the community, to generate evidence-based and locally validated design principles.
