Guarantee the quality of the JAIN Challenges
To guarantee the quality of the World JAIN Challenges (WJC), an independent assessment committee—comprising highly experienced experts with broad expertise in dementia care, technology development, evaluation, implementation, and valorization supports JAIN in maintaining transparency and ensuring high standards.
Experience Experts in assessment-committee
JAIN would like to highlight the involvement of experienced experts in the WJC Jury. To this end, we collaborate with the European Working Group of People with Dementia (EWGPWD) of Alzheimer Europe. The EWGPWD is a working group composed entirely of people living with dementia, nominated by their national Alzheimer associations. They work to ensure that the activities, projects, and meetings of Alzheimer Europe reflect the priorities and perspectives of people with dementia. We also collaborate with the Dementia Carers Working Group of Alzheimer Europe. Other experts we work with include Brain Power and informal carers affiliated with Alzheimer Nederland.
