We aim to create a dementia-friendly library in collaboration with two other organizations in the community: the information service point of the city hall and the city museum. Experts from occupational therapy, health promotion and palliative care will work together with a self-help group including people living with cognitive impairment in this interdisciplinary health promotion project. The aims are to promote health and foster social participation of people with dementia and their carers as well as to contribute to de-stigmatization. Using a participatory health research design based on needs assessments will ensure sustainability.
