‘Building Bridges for People, Policy and Practice’
17–19 November 2010
Hotel Grand Chancellor, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia
The Australian Association of Gerontology (AAG) is hosting its 43rd National Conference in Hobart, Tasmania, from Wednesday 17th to Friday 19th November 2010. In keeping with the location, the conference theme will be 'Islands of Ageing: Building bridges for people, policy and practice'. The conference is particularly looking for papers that examine the challenges of disconnection that occur not only through the individual ageing process, and for older people as a group within the community, but also between researchers, practitioners and policy makers, national state and local bureaucracies, and professions from different disciplinary backgrounds involved in the care and support of older people. This will be a conference with a positive focus on examining ways for making connections and building bridges and will provide opportunities for presenters from every sector: older people, researchers, practitioners, bureaucrats and policy makers. > For more information visit the AAG conference website. |
