Princess Yasmin Aga Khan, President of ADI, and Brian Moss, ADI
chairman at the time, launched World Alzheimer's Day
World Alzheimer's Day™ was launched on 21 September 1994 to mark ADI's 10th anniversary. The day is not an official World Health Organization (WHO) day, but it was launched with the support of WHO. ADI has been in official relations with WHO since 1996.
