A global school of emotional aging

Asias first research and training center dedicated to narrative care, dementia rituals and emotional infrastructure for the aging world.

The Nayuran Institute™ is where care becomes culture and wisdom becomes method. It is not a lecture hall. It’s a living, breathing campus of inquiry, where clinicians, caregivers, psychologists, designers and family members come together to learn the science - and soul - of how we age. From Bangkok to Berlin, we train the next generation of dementia-sensitive professionals and license our methodology to care systems around the world. We don’t just train care. We teach cultural trust.

Built to Teach

The Institute offers immersive education that blends emotional literacy, narrative therapy, and world-class dementia care protocols.

Our core training tracks include: • Nayuran Certified Caregiver™ • Empathy Architect™ (Advanced Care) • Culture Carrier™ (Train-the-Trainer, Global Adaptation) Courses are delivered on campus, virtually, or in hybrid formats. All learning is grounded in our Six Pillars of Emotional Infrastructure™, taught by Thai ritual specialists, clinical researchers, and international aging experts. From day one, students work with real guests, not textbooks.

Memory workshop

A Living Laboratory

Unlike conventional institutions, the Institute is integrated into campus lifewhere every ritual, story, and recovery becomes a source of insight.

Students observe real rituals, family co-care sessions, movement therapies, and memory integration techniques—live, in situ. Our Observation Suites feature discreet windows and sensor-linked dashboards. The Digital Sandbox offers tools for emotional data tracking, family peace scoring, and mood mapping. This isn’t simulated care. It’s care, made transparent for learning.

Global Dialogue, Local Soul

The Institute hosts international symposia, publishes groundbreaking research, and welcomes scholars, clinicians, and innovators from around the world.

Every spring, we convene the NICEA Summit (Nayuran International Conference on Emotional Aging), featuring panels on cultural continuity, ritual design, sensory architecture, and digital empathy tools. We partner with WHO, ADI, ASEAN ministries, and academic institutions from Europe to Southeast Asia. Fellows can join 1–3 month research residencies and publish clinical or cultural papers from within our labs. Nayuran isn’t just teaching. It’s shaping the future of eldercare.
