Healthcare Community - Regional Initiatives

African Initiative

The objectives are to identify leaders, improve communications, and raise awareness about the African Regional Initiative psychogeriatric issues in the region. Goals of this initiative are:

• to bring together a diverse regional group, including current and emerging area opinion leaders
• to begin the major task of sharing knowledge in the field within the regional context, and 
• to initiate policy and guidelines for the region. 

IPA expects the African Initiative to have a major impact on defining the key public health issues for the region and on the organization of effective clinical, research, and educational programs. The African Regional Initiative web section will help facilitate these goals
