Taoiseach Enda Kenny, Tánaiste Joan Burton and Minister for Social & Primary Care Kathleen Lynch today launched the Irish National Dementia Strategy. This honours the commitment in the Programme for Government to develop a national Alzheimer’s and other dementias strategy to increase awareness, ensure timely diagnosis and intervention, and develop enhanced community based services.
The Strategy sets out a number of principles to underpin the provision of care and supports for people with dementia including:
taking account of dementia in the development and implementation of existing and future health policies;
encouraging the participation of people with dementia in society and in their own communities as fully as possible for as long as possible;
the prioritisation of end-of-life care in an appropriate setting for those with dementia;
appropriate training and supervision for all those caring for or providing services to people with dementia;
directing resources to provide the best possible outcome for those with dementia, and for their families and carers.
Speaking at the launch of the Strategy, the said:
As Taoiseach, I am determined that dementia, or indeed old age, should not rob people of what is so valuable to them: their choice and their control over their lives, their privacy and their dignity. Central to the strategy is something that is characteristically taken away from people living with dementia and that is awareness. We want to increase awareness of dementia in the community so that we can act faster and smarter to ensure early diagnosis, treatment and that all-important support, particularly with community-based services.
The Tánaiste said,
Respect for the independence and dignity of the individual underpins this Strategy from the start. Many of the Actions are achievable without a large financial cost but yet they can, if we implement them effectively, make a real difference to the lives of those affected by dementia.
Minister Lynch said,
The very mention of dementia can cause fear and confusion for everyone with those affected not knowing where to turn. Those who come into contact with a person living with dementia are often similarly confused. Reducing this confusion, correcting misinformation and misunderstandings, and focusing on what is possible at every stage of the condition, instead of what is not, are all important parts of what this Strategy is about.

"8-year-old Devi Bibi has been diagnosed with Tuberculosis after a sputum test performed by doctors from Calcutta Rescue, who set up a clinic near her village in rural Bengal. Around 170 patients were detected here last year. Without these clinics they would go undetected and the disease would spread to the greater population. The clinics play a vital role in controlling the disease. Government programmes fighting against the spread of TB have thus far proved ineffective and the efforts of NGOs like Calcutta Rescue are a small drop in the ocean, but the fight presses on."

“This picture highlights the large amount of waste that we humans produce.
The picture was taken at a waste collection site. Because the waste was ‘compacted’, I think it can be recycled as well. Then it will cause less damage to the environment, because recycling reduces the need for new resources.”

25 years of Transition: The Role of Civil Society in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia
A fire-side chat with Sergei Guriev, Professor of Economics, Sciences Po (incoming EBRD Chief Economist)
Civil society, operating in the space between public and private sectors, has played an important role in socio-political and economic transition processes around the world, including the EBRD’s traditional countries of operations. In 25 years since the establishment of the EBRD, civil society’s contribution to transition has varied across the post-communist transition region. In some countries, the work of civil society organisations (CSOs) has contributed to more democratic political systems and more open market based economies as a ‘reputational actor’ performing a ‘watchdog’ function and as a generator of ‘social capital’ necessary to sustain the change process through the difficult early years. In other countries, the focus of CSOs has been on providing a variety of social services particularly to disadvantaged and vulnerable people negatively affected by the transition process. Many civil society actors have been operating in restrictive regulatory environments, and have relied heavily on international donor funding.
What has been civil society’s input into promoting good governance, sustainable development and economic inclusion in EBRD’s traditional region over the past few decades? What are the key lessons learned, from both its successes and failures that can be applied to other countries embarking on a transition process? What steps could be taken to increase the role of civil society in promoting positive changes in societies and economies?
The discussion looked back at the key achievements and setbacks of the civil society sector in contributing to transition since the Bank’s establishment. It also reflected upon the challenges ahead for civil society in building well-governed, sustainable and inclusive economies and societies.
