The National Ageing Research Institute (NARI) has drafted a budget submission calling on the Victorian Government to back new research and workforce training to keep Victorians healthier and living at home for longer.

More and more people are living to a very old age. But the reality is that, on average, Victorians are likely to spend more than a decade in ill-health. The researchers at NARI want to change that; their State Budget submission draws on NARI’s collective expertise as leaders in research with and for older people and their communities to propose budget measures to secure the future of healthy ageing.
