A scoping review of dementia education programs for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, and Vietnamese communities
2026
Overview
This scoping review explored characteristics and impacts of community‐based dementia education programs developed for East and Southeast Asian diaspora, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Filipino, and Vietnamese communities. Studies involving community‐dwelling adults and people impacted by dementia were identified through several databases. Data on study characteristics, program design, implementation, and impact were extracted. Of the 3431 records screened, 26 met inclusion criteria: 11 targeted general community members and 15 involved caregivers. Only 10 programs engaged individuals living with dementia or caregivers in their development. Community‐focused initiatives improved literacy and attitudes, while caregiver‐focused programs showed feasibility and preliminary effectiveness in reducing caregiver burden. Most initiatives were at the pilot stage and required cultural tailoring. To address gaps in dementia awareness, stigma, and accessibility, culturally tailored education, developed with meaningful community involvement, will be essential for strengthening dementia care and support within Asian diaspora populations. Highlights East and Southeast Asians face rising dementia disparities with limited resources. We identified 26 programs improving literacy, attitudes, and caregiver outcomes. Most programs remain in the pilot stage and need cultural tailoring and rigorous testing. Scalable, community‐driven programs are essential to reduce disparities globally.
