This document discusses integrated care for people with dementia across different healthcare settings and proposes a gold standard for integrated dementia care. It finds that hospitals have many patients with dementia yet poor quality care, care homes have most residents with dementia but limited support from GPs, and home care has restricted access and understaffing. The gold standard proposed includes key workers, workforce training, community engagement, and information/advice. New models of integrated care are being tested in vanguard sites and cities like Greater Manchester are developing plans to better coordinate health and social care by 2020.
Dr. Maria Liakata and her team are developing a tablet application to collect longitudinal conversation and writing data between people with dementia and their caregivers. By analyzing patterns of language change over time in areas like vocabulary, syntax and coherence, they aim to develop computational techniques for effective, low-cost dementia diagnosis and monitoring without intrusive medical tests. The application will use images from the past to facilitate dialogue and written responses, engaging people living with dementia while generating data to study language alterations linked to the condition.

Initiatives for Elders of the Madawaska Maliseet First NationsDataNB
This study is part of a pan Canadian movement to find viable solutions for supporting aging in place. The Aboriginal population over the age of 65 has nearly doubled since 2006. Chronic diseases are more prevalent and recovery more difficult for Aboriginals compared to non-Aboriginals. Living in rural areas, limited access to family doctors and specialists, as well as social isolation are thought to be among the primary causes. Moreover, there are many barriers to aging in place, including a decreasing number of natural caregivers, and challenges related to finding community resources in their language of choice. The purpose of this project is to support Aboriginal elders who wish to live healthy and safely at home. The project offers initiatives aimed at providing care, transportation services and accompaniment during medical appointments. A mobile application, installed on a tablet distributed to study participants, serves as a communication tool between the Elder and the services that are offered as part of this project. This webinar presents how the project initiatives were put into practice in the Madawaska Maliseet First Nation community, and preliminary results (if available).

Expo is the most significant annual health and social care event in the calendar, uniting more NHS and care leaders, commissioners, clinicians, voluntary sector partners, innovators and media than any other health and care event.
Expo 15 returned to Manchester and was hosted once again by NHS England. Around 5000 people a day from health and care, the voluntary sector, local government, and industry joined together at Manchester Central Convention Centre for two packed days of speakers, workshops, exhibitions and professional development.
This year, Expo was more relevant and engaging than ever before, happening within the first 100 days of the new Government, and almost 12 months after the publication of the NHS Five Year Forward View. It was also a great opportunity to check on and learn from the progress of Greater Manchester as the area prepares to take over a £6 billion devolved health and social care budget, pledging to integrate hospital, community, primary and social care and vastly improve health and well-being.

This document discusses services and support for children with disabilities and their families in Europe. It outlines several key principles:
1) Protection of children's rights is a priority, and states should support families to meet children's needs.
2) Institutional care should only be used as a last resort, as evidence shows it is not effective and violates children's rights.
3) Successful models emphasize developing community-based, family-focused services across sectors like health, education, and social welfare.
Early intervention, parental support, and inclusion in community life are emphasized.
The document outlines the agenda for a workshop on healthy aging hosted by Innovate UK, including presentations on lessons learned from the Frome Project and the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund's healthy aging competition, as well as discussions around what successful innovation clusters might look like and consumer perspectives.

The document discusses transforming the Student Bursary Support Service through a collaborative approach between the service and Capita. The service currently processes applications and payments for vulnerable students, but the process is lengthy and paper-based. Capita helped develop an online portal with automated application processing, case management, and payment processing to streamline the service and reduce costs. The project faced challenges with timelines, integration, and user adoption, but was successful through stakeholder communication and user-centered design. Lessons included allowing time for refinement and rethinking management information for the new system.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

AHMR is an interdisciplinary peer-reviewed online journal created to encourage and facilitate the study of all aspects (socio-economic, political, legislative and developmental) of Human Mobility in Africa. Through the publication of original research, policy discussions and evidence research papers AHMR provides a comprehensive forum devoted exclusively to the analysis of contemporaneous trends, migration patterns and some of the most important migration-related issues.
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.
