Annotation	In September 2009, Montreal, Quebec hosted the International Psychogeriatric Association's 14th International Congress, in collaboration with the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry, the Canadian Academy of Geriatric Psychiatry, the Canadian Coalition for Seniors' Mental Health, the Canadian Geriatrics Society, and the Société Québecoise de Psychogériatrie. The theme of the Congress was the 'Pathway to Prevention', and the presentations focused on progress made to date on the prevention of late-life mental disorders, barriers the field is still facing, and future achievements that will be needed for this goal to be achieved. A guest editorial precedes six papers which were first presented at the Congress: three on dementia, two on depression, and one on functional disability. One of the dementia papers is based on data from the Sao Paulo Ageing and Health Study (SPAH) in Brazil. (RH).
