Julianne Parkinson, founding CEO of South Australia’s Global Centre for Modern Ageing® has been named among APAC’s leading changemakers in ageing, receiving the prestigious Ageing Asia Global Ageing Influencer Award 2023.

The Global Centre for Modern Ageing® was delighted to host six interactive sessions at Tonsley Innovation District for ZestFest 2019. Supported by GCMA’s skilled researchers, 30 older South Australians worked together to explore experiences at home, and reimagine the future of ageing at home. We will share their insights with industry, to inspire better products and solutions that truly meet people’s needs as they age.

The GCMA was delighted to partner with Unchartered Leadership on the Second Life Project. This Project explored whether there is a way to tap into our elders’ wisdom to address the increasingly complex societal challenges of today's world.
