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. The publication documents the study’s multi-stakeholder engagement, through the converging of stakeholders from the built environment, health, social care, and community.
