This is a recording of the conference Preventing dementia in the Nordics: Evidence-based measures across the life course, held in Stockholm on 4 September 2024. (Part 2/2) • The conference was part of the programme of the 2024 Swedish Presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers. It was organised by the Swedish Ministry for Health and Social Affairs in collaboration with the Nordic Welfare Centre. • Currently an estimated 500,000 people in the Nordic countries have dementia, and the numbers are on the rise. As there is no existing cure, it’s vital to implement preventive measures that promote brain health and mitigate the challenges of living with dementia. This conference shares knowledge on how the Nordic countries seek to prevent dementia across the life course. • PROGRAM (part 2/2) • Policy and practice in the Nordic countries • 00:00:04 | New Nordic report: Dementia prevention in the Nordic Region • – Grete Kjelvik, Postdoctoral Researcher, Aging and Health, Norway • Comments • – 00:15:57 | Taru Koivisto, Deputy Director General, Ministry of Social Affairs and Health, Finland • – 00:25:10 | Michaela Prochazka, Coordinator for Elderly Affairs, The National Board of Health and Welfare, Sweden • • Spotlight-session: Examples of Nordic practices in Dementia prevention • 00:38:09 | Dementia prevention and Health Promoting Communities in Iceland • – Elsa B Fridfinnsdottir, Ministry of Health, Iceland • 00:51:19 The LeVa Health Promotion and Lifestyle Counselling Model • – Kajsa Paniagua Iacobi, Public Health Planner, Angered Hospital, Sweden • 01:01:53 | Seniors’ Advisory Services, Ostrobothnia • – Annika Tetrault, Coordinating Ward Nurse, The Wellbeing Services County of Ostrobothnia, Finland • 01:12:30 | FINGER-abc • – Wilhelmina Hoffman, President, Swedish Dementia Centre, Sweden • 01:26:13 | Demenshjørnet • – Tina Normann Andersen, Manager, Municipality of Aarhus, Denmark • • Concluding remarks • 01:38:30 • – Anna Tenje, Minister for Older People and Social Security, Sweden
