    Walking the Talk for Dementia | Conversations along the Camino - Omnibus

    In May 2023, ATLANTIC FELLOWS from several equity-focussed programs around the world, joined the WALKING THE TALK FOR DEMENTIA along the Camino in Spain, ending in SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA. They were able to do so because of grants awarded by the ATLANTIC INSTITUTE in Oxford which supports Fellows from the seven global Atlantic programs to connect and collaborate for change.

    WALKING THE TALK FOR DEMENTIA was the brainchild of three people, including two Fellows for Equity in Brain Health, Fernando AGUZZOLI-PERES from Brazil and Clara DOMINGUEZ from Santiago de Compostela. They, along with Brazilian Gustavo SAN MARTIN, wanted to organise a conference with a difference where, over four days, people living with dementia, practitioners, researchers, caregivers and Atlantic Fellows walked and talked together to better understand each other’s experiences so that collectively they could create change.

    The ATLANTIC INSTITUTE is based in Oxford, England and works to promote connection and collaboration among Fellows from the seven Atlantic equity-focused programmes around the world in the pursuit of fairer, healthier, more inclusive societies.

    Frameworks for Global Equity & Reparations | A Florant, E O'Brien & M Kamara

    The call for reparations dates as far back as the late 19th century but reparations have yet to materialise for many of the world’s peoples. In the 21st century, the movement for reparations has found a new energy and the discourse is shifting as states band together to seek reparations with greater urgency.

    Patronella NQABA, Program & Impact Lead (Africa) at the Atlantic Institute, facilitates a conversation on Africa Day, 2023 about the frameworks for global equity and reparations, focusing on building a culture of repair.

    SPEAKERS

    (2) Evie O'BRIEN, Executive Director, Atlantic Institute & Atlantic Fellow for Social Equity.
    (3) Makmid KAMARA, Director of the African Transitional Justice Legacy Fund & Atlantic Fellow for Social & Economic Equity.
