The 3rd International Conference on Healthy Ageing & Longevity will be held at the Melbourne Convention Centre, Victoria, Australia, Friday 13 - Sunday 15 October 2006. Co-sponsored by the World Health Organization, the Conference Programme will be developed by the International Research Centre for Healthy Ageing & Longevity (IRCHAL).
As baby-boomers become elders, the unprecedented rise in the number of people aged 60+ worldwide will dramatically expand market demand for medical and lifestyle solutions that better enable them to lead longer, more active lives.
The Conference Programme will explore the full spectrum of proven and potential ageing interventions including pharmaceutical, nutritional, clinical, educative, policy, complementary, preventive and restorative means and the scientific underpinnings supporting them. At the same time, the Conference will recognise the diversity of ageing individuals, cultures and methodologies within all communities and across the globe with the object of promoting healthier, happier and longer lives for all.
Beyond the value of exchanging ideas and extending your professional expertise, this milestone event promises to keep you wonderfully entertained – socialising with international experts, enjoying the gala dinner and award winning musical performances; and taking in the fabulous sights and sounds of Melbourne.
Dr. Alexandre Kalache, Coordinator, Ageing & Life Course Programme, World Health Organization, Geneva, Switzerland, said about the Conference:
“You cannot understand ageing unless you have all of the sectors together. Ageing, by definition, is interdisciplinary, it is multisectoral. This is why we need everybody together, and what we have with this opportunity is exactly the chance of getting all these people together to speak freely.”
