Conference Description:
The aim of the 2nd National Conference on Positive Aging is to bring together an interdisciplinary audience of health professionals and researchers to address some of the issues and challenges facing the aging population today. The aim is to hear about the most current research findings from leading experts, learn how research can be translated into practice, and discover useable resources to promote healthier, more positive living for Canada’s older adult population. The importance of purpose and meaning in the later life as well as lessons for health and longevity will be emphasized.
The conference will provide informative lectures, discussions, workshops, poster sessions and ample networking opportunities. A highlight of this conference will be to hear from older adults themselves thoughout the program.
