Call for applications to participate in the EDEM Training School on Ethics in Dementia
Lithuania 21th and 22th of September
The EC Cost action EDEM (CA21137) will host an Autumn Training School on the 21th and 22st of September 2023. The purpose of the school is to upskill mainly early-stage researchers in theoretical and applied aspects of ethical issues as they pertain to dementia care.
EDEM is a multi-disciplinary network of academics and practioners with a mission to promote the dignity, autonomy, and quality of life of people with dementia and their formal and informal caregivers while facing ethical challenges concerning dementia care. We aim to develop an ethical framework, recommendations and an educational toolkit available for use across Europe. The training school will entail a mixture of lectures and workshops which will be highly interactive with group discussions and debates on cases. As such it could appeal to either scholars or practioners interested in dementia and ethics or already working within the field.
