このコンテンツについて
In this episode, I am pleased to welcome our second international guest: Dr. Cecilia Chan, an imaginative gerontologist, dementia advocate and activist based in Malaysia. Our conversation focused on the rising aging population in Malaysia, the stigmatized discourse surrounding dementia in Malaysia, and how innovative community-based projects that she lead such as the Forgotten Mutiara Café plays a key role to transform the perception and culture of dementia care. I also had the privilege to learn about her other beautiful initiatives including the Totsu-Totsu Therapeutic Arts and Dancing with Dementia Retreat, which have been featured in national and international media.
You surely do not want to miss this beautiful conversation! ✨ Together, let’s uncover this majestic but forgotten Mutiara!
