Because all MEMORIES COUNT!
Since we are born we build memories. With our parents, grandparents, uncles, cousins... and later, with friends and acquaintances. Memory then becomes the most powerful foundation of our identity. Under the Research Plan Action on Dementias in the municipality of Ponte da Barca - Plan IADem, will be published throughout the months of February and March 2022 psychoeducational activities aimed at (in)formal caregivers and people cared for by them to perform at home.

We retain different types of memories throughout our lives.
Declarative/explicit memory consists of the types of memories we consciously experience. Some of these memories are facts or general knowledge like the flag of Portugal and its capital (Lisbon). Others consist of past events that we experienced, such as entering school.
