The Dementia Friendly Japan Initiative (DFJI) is a general incorporated association registered in Japan. It is composed of people from private enterprises, local governments, academia, NPOs, people living with dementia and their families. The objectives of the DFJI are to have a better understanding of the impact of dementia and think collectively among broader and different stakeholder groups in the public and private sectors in Japan. DFJI serves as a platform for companies, groups and people who are interested in creating and promoting dementia-friendly communities in Japan through their voluntary projects. Here are some examples of DFJI’s official projects.
