Welcome from Kerry Prendergast, Mayor of Wellington:

I look forward to welcoming visitors to Wellington for the New Zealand Association of Gerontology and Age Concern New Zealand Conference.

Wellington is the perfect location for a conference.  Not only is our city conveniently located for visitors from around the country and overseas, and well-versed in staging successful conferences, it also boasts an enormous amount of things to see and do.

Why not arrive a little earlier and take in the astonishing spectacle that is the World of WearableArt Awards Show?  Or set aside some time to explore Te Papa, our national museum.    Or explore the city's stunning natural attractions, from the Botanic Gardens to Zealandia, the Karori Sanctuary experience, where you can meet some of New Zealand's rarest native animals.

Then there are the best bars and restaurants in the country, our thriving theatre and music scene, and so much more.  You won't be disappointed.

See you in Wellington!

Welcome from the conference convenors:


Mark your diary now with this major event on ageing.
 
The conference links research, policy and practice by providing a diverse programme that ranges over areas such as population ageing, health and resilience, elder care and cultural differences.

Come and listen to leading international and local speakers, participate in workshops, provide a presentation, and view the exhibits. This will be an opportunity to come up-to-date with latest developments in the field of ageing and to have your say in how the future could be shaped.

You are warmly invited to participate.
