PPI is an integral part of the ENGAGE project
Our project partners, the community advisory team in Kenya and Dementia Associates in the UK, were involved in developing culturally sensitive and appropriate messages aimed at promoting dementia awareness in Kenya. These messages have now been printed on T-shirts and other promotional materials that are being used in awareness- raising initiatives.
Developing T-Shirt prototypes
Presenting the Prototypes
Eliciting feedback on the prototypes from Dementia Associates
We presented the prototypes to a panel of Dementia Associates at the Salford Institute for Dementia and Ageing, Manchester, UK. The Associates provided feedback on the messages, graphics, logos, colours and designs of the prototypes. We also conducted a prioritisation exercise in which panel members chose the prototype with the message(s) they believed would be potentially effective in raising public awareness and changing negative attitudes about people living with dementia.
