PROGRAMME

The Symposium will be an opportunity to connect with and recognise our community and research partners who have engaged with and contributed to the kaupapa of Ageing Well over its 10-year duration. It will also provide a forum to deliver key messages about the Challenge’s successes and future opportunities to a diverse audience.

In the room, there will be a mix of decision-makers, partners, researchers, community advocates, and others involved in the care and support of older people.

We hope these conversations about how New Zealanders can age well will continue, and that the Symposium will provide a valuable opportunity to facilitate future collaborations and networking.
