Abstract

The aim of this paper is to reveal how the collaboration process mobilise resources among countries with different logics of welfare, yet address similar problems of ageing society, i a caring, a learning and a political perspective.

The study draws on social science theories and the analysis is based on qualitative empirical data from an interdisciplinary field.

The main conclusion is that a multi-dimensional understanding of dementia care by shared knowledge of different welfare logics adds value to experiences of cross-border learning.  A social innovation model is presented.
