This pilot will implement a Dementia Health Literacy intervention adapted to Latvia. It aims to improve knowledge about dementia, neurocognitive disorders and stroke, reduce stigma and misconceptions, and promote brain health among healthcare professionals, informal caregivers and the general population. It combines evidence-based educational content with digital learning and uses a pre-post assessment approach.

To implement and evaluate the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of a Dementia Health Literacy intervention in the Latvian context.

1. To improve knowledge and awareness of dementia, neurocognitive disorders and stroke among healthcare professionals, informal caregivers and the general population.
2. To strengthen communication and person-centred approaches to dementia care.

The pilot is expected to improve knowledge and awareness of dementia, neurocognitive disorders and stroke; strengthen communication between healthcare professionals, patients and caregivers; and support more informed, person-centred decision-making and care.

Results are not yet available. Outcomes will be evaluated using a pre-post intervention assessment measuring changes in participants’ knowledge, awareness and perceptions.

Lessons learnt are not yet available because the pilot is under preparation. Preliminary planning highlights the importance of flexible educational formats that maximise participation by healthcare professionals while remaining accessible to informal caregivers and the general population.

The educational materials can continue to be used and updated after completion. The intervention can be adapted for different target groups and implemented in other healthcare and community settings across Latvia.

The pilot promotes Dementia Health Literacy by improving understanding of dementia and brain health, encouraging earlier recognition of symptoms, reducing misconceptions and supporting informed decisions.
