Dementia and Healthy Ageing

Quebec–Denmark collaboration webinar.

The aim of this webinar is to give a broad overview of the dementia and ageing ecosystems in Quebec and Denmark to create interest in collaborations on intersectoral research, innovation, and care.

This first Quebec-Denmark webinar will showcase examples of successful intersectoral collaborations from each side, highlighting how working together can lead to innovation and improved care and quality of life for older adults, including people living with dementia.

This webinar also aims to mobilise Quebec stakeholders for a visit to Denmark in May 2026 to attend HIMSS Europe (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) and other Danish ecosystem visits.
