Strengthening Research Capacity and Policy Responses to Dementia in Romania

Stefania Ilinca, Ph.D.
Trinity College
Dublin, Ireland



Dr. Stefania Ilinca’s project aims to develop and implement a national dementia plan in Romania. Dr. Ilinca will hold a workshop that involves local stakeholders including researchers and advocates to help develop a cohesive vision for a national dementia plan and common goals in Romania. The researchers will perform a systematic assessment of the current situation of dementia care, treatment and support in Romania and provide a detailed analysis for future planning. Finally, Dr. Ilinca’s study will help inform policy recommendations for future dementia care systems in Romania. If successful, the study results could be shared across different countries in order to promote equity in dementia care models.
