Dr Aida Suárez-Gonzalez narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Aida has just been awarded UCL Global Engagement Funds (GEF) for a project to co-produce positive narratives about dementia. The GEF are an exciting seed funding scheme for all sorts of global engagement ideas. In Aida's project, she plans to partne with collaborators at Princeton University and the University of South Carolina. The aim being to co-create an Oliver Sack’s style book about people with posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), primary progressive aphasia (PPA) and dementia with lewy bodies (DLB). And publish it - in this blog Aida shares her journey of selling the idea and applying for the UCL Global Engagement funds.
