Alzheimer’s Disease International (ADI) is the international federation of 77 Alzheimer associations around the world. It was founded in 1984 as a network
for Alzheimer associations around the world to share and exchange information, resources and skills. We are based in London and are registered as a non-profit organisation in the USA. We have been in official relations with the World Health Organization since 1996. Each of our members is a non-profit association focused on supporting people with dementia and their
families.
