Up to 40% of dementia can be prevented by addressing health and lifestyle factors that include increasing physical activity, and maintaining a healthy diet and social connectedness.
Unfortunately, this message is not reaching Australia’s CALD communities, where there is a limited awareness of dementia and dementia prevention. With Federal Government funding, NARI is working to address this gap with an animated video about dementia prevention in 9 languages.
The animated films are freely available online. They are available in: Arabic, Cantonese, Mandarin, Hindi, Tamil, Greek, Vietnamese, Spanish and Italian.
