Funded Activity Summary

Comparing the Living Standards of Children and Older People Within and Between Nations. The research will contribute to our understanding of the factors that determine the living standards of children and older people and inform the policy response to population ageing. It will draw on the expertise of leading national and international researchers, utilise a range of existing and new data to conduct in-depth comparisons between Australia and other similar countries, and contribute to the development of an important new international database. Relevant to the national research priorities, the project will train a new generation of Australian researchers, and actively engage end-users in the research process by providing new information for policy development.
