Hot off the press - Latest bibliography of NZ research on ageing
Last year the Ministry of Social Development convened a Working Group to develop solutions to enhance research on population ageing by firstly identifying:
the existing resources available for research on ageing;
ways to make better use of these resources; and,
the longer term direction for research into ageing issues, including possible future research priorities and options for moving this forward.
Research on population ageing includes research on those who are 65 years and over and the preceding generational cohorts. It includes broader research on population dynamics, its implications for ethnic, cultural, regional, and life-course diversity, and its impact on social policy, services and New Zealand's economy.
As part of their brief, the working group has developed a bibliography of recent age-related research carried out in New Zealand.This updates previous bibliographies that covered until 2005.
