The project will increase understanding of how online social networking contributes to successful ageing through partnering, economic and voluntary activity, family and social connectedness. The findings will inform policy recommendations, social interventions and education programs designed to enhance 'ageing well, ageing productively'. These are expected to benefit the health and well-being of older Australians, with economic benefits of increased contributions to society and fewer demands on services. Social and economic benefits are also expected from insights into reducing the technological and psychological barriers that prevent older people from benefiting from the Internet and online social networking.

该项目将增进人们对在线社交网络如何通过伙伴关系、经济和志愿活动、家庭和社会联系为成功老龄化做出贡献的理解。研究结果将为政策建议、社会干预和教育项目提供信息，旨在促进“健康老龄化，高效老龄化”。预计这些措施将有利于澳大利亚老年人的健康和福祉，增加对社会的贡献并减少对服务的需求，从而带来经济效益。在减少阻碍老年人从互联网和在线社交网络中获益的技术和心理障碍方面的见解也有望带来社会和经济效益。
