Neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease, are the most common neurological disorders associated with dementia, accounting for 60-70% of all dementia cases, currently affecting over 55 million individuals worldwide. In order to address these challenges, the European Commission has prioritized mental health alongside physical health, introducing 20 flagship initiatives supported by €1.23 billion in funding from different financial instruments.  

Joint Action JADE Health is one of these projects designed to integrate validated best practices and cost-effective interventions across countries and regions through transnational pilot initiatives, complementing and reinforcing existing policies and programs. 

We are pleased to announce that the Neuroscience Foundation (Fundación de Neurociencias fneurociencias) from Spain has become an official stakeholder of JADE Health.

The Neuroscience Foundation was established in 2006 by a group of health professionals to improve the quality of life of people with neurological and psychiatric diseases.  

Main activities of the NGO are focused on social programmes of cognitive stimulation and family support, as well as enhancing research and innovation, by contributing to the development of solutions improving patients’ diagnosis and treatment. These activities include the area of digital health and neuro-technologies, a rapidly developing field that provides solutions to many of the needs of its beneficiaries.

For this reason Fneurociencias plays a key role as facilitator, and establishes the connection between the scientific community, the industry and its beneficiaries. 

The collaboration between Jade Health and the Neuroscience Foundation is based on and will utilise the comprehensive and holistic approach to healthcare that JADE Health adopts, actually focusing on multiple dimensions of well-being of people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias and including life quality improvement of their carers’ and families. 

We’ll also seek ways to elevate societal awareness of dementia by providing targeted education to relatives, care professionals, and other key stakeholders. 

Let’s shape the future together for those living with dementia and their caregivers.
