What does it mean to live well with dementia?

By 2058, close to one million Australians will be living with dementia.

We have care homes, government programs, and clinical protocols, but what we often lack is something more fundamental: a genuine understanding of what it means to live a good life.

Yun-Hee Jeon has spent her career studying exactly that, through world-first trials in person centred care and dementia rehabilitation, work inside care homes and community programs, and the lens of her own family. Her research shows that small acts of respect rather than control can transform the dementia journey.
