On 09 December 2026, ADI welcomes its global network to tune into our annual End of Year Forecast livestream event, this year as we shine a light on ‘The Vital Intersection of Dementia Risk Reduction, Treatment & Support: A Life-Course Approach’.
This year, we will explore the facts around dementia risk and prevention, asking questions about how an individual can reduce their dementia risk, what is genetic risk, what can be done on a national scale to help countries increase prevention rates across populations, and how prevention strategies can be leveraged into existing treatment and support systems around the world.
ADI welcomes Professor Miia Kivipelto as this year’s guest expert, Miia is a Professor of Clinical Geriatrics at the Karolinska Institute and founder of the landmark World-Wide FINGERS dementia prevention initiative, her pioneering research has transformed global understanding of dementia prevention in areas such as lifestyle, vascular and genetic risk factors.
The Lancet Commission has shared evidence-led research stating that 45% of dementia risk could potentially be prevented or delayed by addressing modifiable risk factors, such as reducing tobacco and alcohol use, tackling social isolation and increasing physical activity. These identified risks offer a gateway providing health systems and households tangible opportunities to reduce dementia risk as well as dementia’s global impact.
Whether you are a healthcare professional, researcher, advocate, or simply someone interested in reducing your risk of dementia and understanding more about brain health, this is a unique opportunity to hear from one of the field’s most influential voices and have your questions answered live during the session.
