Abstract

This chapter brings together recent innovative uses of multimedia tools to explore narratives of people with a diagnosis of dementia. The foundations for this work are located in an understanding of the concepts of resilience and well-being and the role of narrative-based reminiscence in fostering resilience, especially as applied to people with dementia. The work collected here focuses on supporting people with a diagnosis, their families, and their communities. We begin with a discussion of the conceptual foundations underpinning this research.
