The United Nations has adopted 2021-2030 as the Decade of Healthy Ageing. The Decade has four themes:

  • ✓ Changing the way we think feel and act about ageing
  • ✓ Building communities that foster the abilities of older people
  • ✓ Delivering person-centred integrated care and primary health services responsive to older people
  • ✓ Providing access to long-term care for older people who need it.
This event, the first in our 2021 series, was held on Tuesday, 9th March from 6:00-7:00pm (AEST) and the recording is available to view upon request.
