Description
Roxanne Jacobs lays out how stigma warps dementia care in South Africa in a 2025 talk summary. Care for people with dementia and their families falls short across the land. Weak grasp of the disease in the public and in care systems drives that gap. The summary draws on a scene study from the STRIDE project on dementia in poorer lands.
The study joined a desk read, talks with many groups, and a four-way scan of strengths and gaps. Finds show breaks from first diagnosis to end-of-life care. Stigma and bias sit among the blocks. The team urges joint policy across health and social care.
