Developing a collaborative approach to ageing well in the community

该项目位于已确定的国家研究优先事项范围内，即“健康、富有成效地老化”。这也符合ARC NHMRC研究网络在老龄化方面的目标。虽然澳大利亚的大部分政策辩论以前都集中在与人口老龄化相关的负面影响上，但探索老年人和当地社区如何才能很好地老龄化是至关重要的。该项目的好处是，它通过在地方一级提供行动框架，帮助转化国家政策指令/目标。通过加强老年人参与社区的选择，该项目将进一步受益。

This project is located within an identified national research priority that of Ageing Well, Ageing Productively. It is also consistent with the goals of the ARC NHMRC Research Network in Ageing Well. While much of the Australian policy debate has previously focused on the negative implications associated with population ageing, it is essential to explore how older people and local communities can age well. The benefit of this project is that it helps translate national policy directives / goals by offering a framework for action at the local level. Further benefit will derive from the project by enhancing options for community engagement of older people.
