Our Research and Reports

New Zealanders of advanced age make up one of the fastest growing groups in our population. Doing research into ageing and health helps us understand how best to support older New Zealanders. The research findings support the New Zealand Healthy Ageing Strategy http://www.health.govt.nz/publication/healthy-ageing-strategy

Long reports


These long reports describe findings about successful ageing across multiple years of the study.
