Over the past 12 months, NARI’s researchers, research colleagues, industry partners, consumer advocates and lived experience experts have contributed to an extraordinary calendar of conferences, forums and other external events both nationally and internationally – bringing research to life for older people.
NARI’s recent Annual General Meeting (AGM) marked an important moment of transition and renewal for our organisation with outgoing Board Chair Professor Michael Murray AM announcing the appointment of four new Directors to the NARI Board.
NARI is backing the Association of Australian Medical Research Institute’s (AAMRI) campaign to sound the alarm on the future of life-saving medical research – calling on the Federal Government to release the full amount from the Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) and ensure those funds meet the true cost of research.
A study led by NARI researchers has been selected as a Silver Award recipient of the 2025 Innovative Research on Aging Awards | Mather Institute. The US-based Mather Institute created the awards to inspire evidence-based practices that improve the lives of older adults.
NARI’s Annual Summit for 2025 brought together over 100 leading voices from academia, government, advocacy, industry and community sectors across Australia to discuss the value of older people in the workforce, highlighting the many benefits of recruiting, retaining and empowering workers as they age.
