In December 2018 the European Working Group of People with Dementia (EWGPWD) held it’s first meeting with the new group.
The group is composed entirely of people living with dementia. Their aim is to ensure that the activities of Alzheimer Europe duly reflect the priorities and views of people with dementia.
Our Early Stage Researchers had the opportunity to present and discuss the INDUCT projects with the group. We are very appreciative for this consultation with members of the EWGPWD group to exchange views!

As training manager of INDUCT, I am responsible for the overall coordination and organization of the individual and network-wide training of our 15 ESRs. My main task is the organization of five INDUCT Summer and Winter Schools. Together with the local and management team, we identify needs and interests among the ESRs, compose a varied program for the week including training sessions, project meetings and social and networking events, invite academic and non-academic expert speakers, organize practical matters, and afterwards we evaluate the event, write a report, and try to incorporate all suggestions in our future training events.
