Older adults - the real experts in shaping better futures for agingWe all hope to age well — but where we live, what we earn and the communities we're part of can shape that journey in very different ways. In this session, postdoctoral fellow Cameron Murray will explore how community-driven research can spark real change and support a fairer future for aging. Drawing on examples from research, public policy and emerging technologies, Murray will challenge how we think about aging in place and offer ideas for addressing often ignored aspects of getting older.Cameron Murray is a community-based anthropologist, design researcher and health science communicator.
